We drove around the park area! Lake Superior was very riled up with a wind storm (September) while we were there and some kids were even surfing on the west side of the park that day! We were caught in the Labor Day storm at Copper Harbor, but it was a great adventure for us anyway... we're used to wind being from Kansas!! This was our 2nd trip to that area of Michigan because we enjoy it so much. I've looked at all your posts about Lake Superior; enjoyed them all!!!meowmommahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01209824648988317879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3803801517332763895.post-3443145821270611962010-11-11T06:33:36.783-05:002010-11-11T06:33:36.783-05:00Me and my family were up there in September.
