So, last week we did some gardening.
Ripped out some periwinkle. We hate periwinkle.
Don't ever plant periwinkle, okay?
As a reward for all our periwinkle elimination work, we decided to drive up to the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore.
We found a nice shady spot away from the crowds and had a nice picnic.
You can see the crowds down there. We are kind of exaggerating when we say "crowds."
But more people showed up as our post-prandial nap progressed. If you look really really hard (and click on that photo to see the full-sized image) you can just make out Chicago in the distance.
That's us. Waiting for the baby to come out.
On the way home, we thought it would be nice to take the scenic route. The interesting thing about the Indiana Dunes is that the park is sandwiched between two steel mills and a nuclear reactor.
The people in that house must get really good deals on their electricity.
On our way home, we stopped in Three Oaks, Michigan. Home of the "Prancer" movie. We bought some fine Polish sausage at Drier's. If you have the means, we really recommend their bratwurst, too. They have a really good homemade mustard with horseradish in it. We like that, too.
Glad we got this blog out there. We've been sitting on it for a while.
That's all the news that's fit to print. Stay tuned for more local interest stories from the Michiana area.
