Sleeping Bear Dunes is kind of like an old friend, especially since I’ve been here twice in the last several years. I took the scenic drive for tourists which is part of the park, which is a little different experience on a scooter than in a car: a little more personal (especially with the face shield of my helmet up) and a little more harrowing going down wet hills with no cage around me. The weather’s hazy, so the views weren’t spectacular today.
I stopped at the ever-popular dune climb but didn’t go up. Been there, done that, and I’m trying to relax on this trip, not get in shape or “test” myself. And did you know that there’s a nature trail at the dune climb (not up the dune)? Anyway, the whole SBD stop was more of a “pop in” to see the place, not a destination, which is why this report is a little perfunctory.
