Most sightings were pretty to see but the first one was just fun. Goats--lots of goats and one horse...and one dog that was doing its job and making us feel unwelcome.
We wondered if this was one of the sources of all the goat cheese that is available in stores and restaurants around here. Looks like an interesting farm.
Our next new road was Romans Point Road, East and West. This road, loaded with beautiful homes, follows along the Lake Superior shore on the west side looking out on Bark Bay and around on the east side facing Siskiwit Bay.
At the bottom of the east side was a dead end road called Lost Creek Road and it led to this beautiful access point for kayaks, paddleboards or canoes, or maybe even wading people on a warmer day.
Looking up Lost Creek.
Looking across to Cornucopia across Siskiwit Bay
Now we're in Cornucopia where we had lunch at the Village Inn and where we found another beautiful, sandy beach. We never knew this was here or that it was so accessible down west of the marina. We usually go to the beach on the east side so this one was fun to discover.
And at the marina we saw this definite sign of fall, or winter soon-to-come, with all the big boats out of the water, high and dry.
Our final stop was a quick turn-and-park right off Highway 13. We've seen this turn-out hundreds of times and finally stopped. A short walk down a path and here is yet another sandy beach...with LOTS of drift wood--really big drift wood!
The signage for this stop seemed to be directed to anglers but you'd have to be dedicated to fishing to make use of it. It was NOT accessible! You'd need to crawl down a muddy bank and through some mucky water to get to the nice sand bar and beach. Someone had tried to improve it with a couple sets of rickety steps and then a plank to get across the muck. But...we didn't do that and just enjoyed the view.
Tomorrow: More kinds of pickles!
