Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore

lc2757


We finally made it to the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore on our way back from Maine.  We've been talking about going for years, just never taken the time to stop when we get near.  This time we did stop at the headquarters to get our passport stamp, then went to Mt Baldy.

Immediately upon starting up the path we found a lizard.

Haden helped him pose for the camera.  He does have a way with creatures.  The little guy reminds me of a wiggling, growling dog.

I just thought the shadows on the uneven sand was cool.

Dennis hand to dip his toes in the cool water, hope a wave doesn't slap the camera.

A lighthouse in the distance.  If the day had been clearer we would have been able to see Chicago, but alas, it was not to be.

So cool and refreshing on a hot day!

Seagulls scavenge anywhere, even in the trashcans.
