Four and a half hour drive to SBD from northwest Detroit....uneventful drive.....some rain to start, clearing as we drove north, and arrived to sunny, cool and windy weather - 60 degrees...set up toutou (the name of our RV, meaning "puppy", in French)....took a mile walk to Lake Michigan - Platte River Campground is at the southern end of the park, and in the pics attached, you can see the big dunes to the north....all three of us were thrilled to see the shore of the lake....not sure Molly realizes it isn't the ocean yet....maybe once she tries to take a sip of water?!?!?!
The campground is beautiful - secluded sites, well-maintained, and very peaceful....the government should feel proud of the job it does on these parks, imho. Anyway, settled in and warmed up a dinner of cassoulet, washed down by a lovely 2011 Saint Cosme Gigondas....long walk afterward to dump the garbage and recycles....sitting listening to some music, about to crawl in to bed....feeling very fortunate....and very happy....
