Yes, here it finally is – my last post from our camping trip in July, only three and a half months later. It seems like so much longer ago than that.
Our
last full day in Michigan’s UP, we drove around and then walked around the city
of Crystal Falls.
The Paint River Walkway on the east side of town.
The Paint River at Lincoln Park, where the Riverwalk begins.
Clark's Landing
As much as I love the fall colors we've been enjoying the last few months, you can't beat the beauty of clear blue water.
Fairbanks Road Bridge just south of the Dam.
The Iron County Courthouse in Crystal Falls can only be described as iconic.
And nearly the same as when I was camping there exactly forty years ago. Except I see they have a new water tower.
Above is July of 2021, below July of 1981. Crazy, huh? Maybe I should travel to new places.
Speaking of seeing new things though,
I get to see and photograph lots of old houses from the outside, but I finally got to tour inside this one.
Harbour House
And even though we have many more modern conveniences than they did, it stills seems as if the work is never done.
We all feel like we are spinning our wheels getting everything finished. 
Like blogging about this week-long trip. But here I am, finally finished.
