For RICHARD

and others who are geographically challenged (or at least not familiar with the Midwest)

YES!!! We have beaches!!!

Somewhere in Michigan.....

I think I've been there!! We toured all around Lake Michigan in 1984!! We even found a village called "BRUSSELS" !!!:D

Thanks Sara!!! I think Richard needs to come and visit and see for himself!

I personally LOVE the beaches along the north shore of Lake Superior....actually that's probably my favorite spot on Earth.

I love Lake Huron. :D Spent many a childhood at Tawas State Park.

If Richard looks at that picture he may come not only for the beaches:p :p

The other question is whether the beach is ok for a surfboard and whether colourful cocktails are served close by:D

You mean fru fru drinks??? Not on Lake Superior, you're more likely to find beer! lol

Will that be ok for a South Californian??

Well considering the conversation between Tanya and Richard, I'd say that beer would be a good bet.

It's true I've heard that very often in my life. How come I never did
:confused:

I LOVE Lake Michigan! It looks just like an ocean! :p I've been there a few times. Its great, especially in the night! :p Love the landscape and all those lights. :p

Barbara, if you get in trouble a lot, the thought of you and Richard together is scary!

Richard, please don't tell me that you are a night person too!!

I like the great lakes and I think that you MUST come see them there RICHARD!

the beach at st josephs' is very pretty and good for swimming, in fact i have a friend who will take my ashes, and the dogs' when the time comes and scatter me from the pier (not in the middle of tourist season tho, i don't want to get stuck on some suntan oli on a tourists' back LOL). there's a great area with steep dunes to run dogs near there, lotsa seagulls and dead fish to roll in, alex the wonder dog highly recommends it. the best place for fru-fru drinks during sunset is in saugatuck. fishing is excellent along ludington, and the traverse city area is very pretty in the summer and fall. the best cherry milks shakes in the midwest are served in an ice cream resturant on US31 in traverse city. sigh...i miss home.

joycenalex...hope it doesn't make you more homesick...that photo was taken on the beach at Grand Haven.....
