We had another picture perfect day of riding with the temps in the 70s. It was 23 miles along M28 to Seney where we turned north for 25 miles to Grand Marais. Leaving at 8AM we were in the local "rush hour" traffic for an hour. After that the road was better. Of course the wind shifted to NNW so most of the time we had a headwind. We arrived in Grand Marais at 12:20. I saw a man selling fruit so I got a couple of bananas and asked one of the lady customer where the best place for lunch is. She highly recommended the West Bay Diner a little old diner behind the post office. The waitress Ellen Airgood is an author. We had a large pizza and chocolate malt. The majority of the pizza came with us for dinner and breakfast Continuing on to Pictured Rocks for the night we stopped at the visitor center to inquire about campsites. Being a perfect Labor Day weekend everything was full except for the handicap ones. After 6 pm anyone can use them. It was only 4 when we arrived at the site. Since Tom had a hip replacement he has a handicap permit so we could legally stay. Good thing he had his card with a number on it because it was required for the registration. This CG only has a cold water faucet and vault toilets. We walked to the Au Sable light station then took our bath in the lake. This year the lake is very warm and swimming was a pleasure Back at camp we enjoyed more pizza and our last cookie. It felt good to be camping since I've been lugging this tent around.
