Pictured rocks

Amanda and I ventured to the Pictured Rocks Lakeshore cruise on our weekend get-away to Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Much to our disappointment, on Saturday the fog was so thick we couldn't see the sandstone cliffs. But, we did receive a full refund, so we ended up with a free boat ride.  

The other cruise boat nearly disappeared into the fog. On the return trip to the bay, a ranger retold the story of the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald. I was pretty sure that my uncle wouldn't have appreciated hearing the chilling tale while in the middle of fog on Lake Superior.
