Presque Isle River

A nice drive north of Wakefield takes you to the western end of the Porcupine Mountains. There is a beautiful river called the Presque Isle that leads to Lake Superior. The waves of the "Big Lake" had deposited some great driftwood along the shore.














Black River Gorge

On a drive north of Bessemer there are trails that lead back to some wonderful falls along the Black River. The river eventually flows into Lake Superior. If you visit western Upper Peninsula, you have to see the falls of the Black River and the suspension bridge that leads to the beach on the "Big Lake."














Vacation Time in the Upper Peninsula

I had a wonderful time last week visiting my daughter Amy, her husband Mike, and their son Nathan. Amy took me and Nathan on day trips to see the colors on the trees in the U. P. What beauty the Lord God has made. Here is a picture of my grandson and me by Golden Lake, just north of US highway 2 between Iron River and Watersmeet.
