Winter Camping

winter camping

It is getting to be that time of year when we consider winterizing the camper and putting it away for the season.  Sure enough, as soon as we do, the weather turns sunny and dry!

We found some pretty good tip pages for those looking to brave the cold and camp this winter:

Weekly Photo Challenge: Horizon

“Never look down to test the ground before taking your next step; only he who keeps his eye fixed on the far horizon will find the right road.”  -Dag Hammarskold

This is great advice unless you happen to be walking on a dock in the early morning.  It may be a good idea to check your footing a time or two. 🙂

Weekly Photo Challenge: Infinite

I have visited the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore so many times as a child and adult that I have lost count.  The view from the top of Pyramid Point never disappoints!  This past summer I was so happy to be able to share the view with my husband for the first time.  There are a lot of things I love about this photo, including how the water seamlessly blends to the sky. The color blue travels as far as the eye can see – INFINITE.   It illustrates perfectly how the Great Lakes rival any of the best oceans in terms of spectacular blue waters and wonderful views.  And better still – unsalted! If you have never visited we encourage you to do so!

And here is a little bit of infinite wisdom for the day:

“When the water meets the sky,
where your heart is free and hope comes back to life,
when these broken hands are whole again,
we’ll find what we’ve been waiting for,
we were made for so much more.

We can be the kings and queens of anything if we believe.
It’s written in the stars that shine above,
a world where you and I belong, where faith and love will keep us strong,
exactly who we are is just enough, exactly who we are is just enough,
there’s a place for us.”
