Gay Michigan visit

Left Beatons on Saturday and headed two hours further north to the Keweenah pennisula where Todd and friends have 60 odd acres of scrub land that conveniently holds a trailer (however no water or electricity) After hearing horror stories of this trailer for the past couple of years, I finally got the courage to check it out. It's definitely a trip... Actually, they guys have put a lot of work into cleaning the inside and it was quite habitable. Sorry, forgot to get pictures inside. THe outside area is all second/third generation growth. There are almost no old forest growth on this land - and since it was owned by forestry company previously that makes sense. The property is quite dense with trees, they just are not that tall and there are no pine trees, it's all birch and maple.


One of the highlights of this area is trip to the Gay Bar and Grill. That's right, the property is close by the Michigan city of Gay. It's basically a cross in the road by Lake Superior. We didn't make it into town on Saturday, choosing to cook out instead. But next time, I'll definitely check out the Gay Bar.
