The other side of the Lake is supposed to be Chicago.
Sunday morning Laurel (my wife) suggested we deviate from our norm of going to church and instead go hit the beach. I don't have to be asked twice for that! Especially with the 20 MPH winds generating 2-4 foot waves. The kids and I spent about 3 hours crashing into the waves. The beach we go is about five minutes from our house and is on Lake Michigan. If you are not from around here, you have no idea of the size and power of Lake Michigan. Those waves absolutely pounded me.
Lake Michigan Facts:
Is the 3rd largest of the Great Lakes.
Is slightly smaller than West Virginia
Surface area of 22,340 square miles
307 miles long
118 miles wide
Greatest depth is 923 feet!
We hit the beach as often as possible, in fact we will go Wednesday evening.
That's it for now.
