What a crazy, fun week. Besides everything else we had going on, Brian & I (Van too) went to Washington Island for a couple of days. Brian's been there on his motorcycle before, but it was my first time. What a special place. On the way up, we stopped in Bailey's Harbor, where there was an art show and farmer's market happening. Loved seeing the cute alpacas. Next week took the ferry over to the island. We lucked out big time, and pulled right in to the last spot before it took off. I love being on a ferry. The short ride over was beautiful. First stop once there was Fragrant Isle Lavender Farm. It was a bit of a racket ($8 a person just to wander the fields) -- but it was really beautiful and I'm glad we got to see it. By then, we were starving so went to The Albatross for a cheeseburger. So good. Then it was time to go to our campsite. There is only one campsite on the island -- Washington Island Campground. It's a private campground, that also has cute little cabins. And horses. After a big day, we enjoyed just staying at our site and cooking there. We had a beautiful spot with forest all around us. And fortunately, not nearly the amount of mosquitoes we had earlier in Michigan. It was a lovely night.
