Off we went to explore Indiana, our first stop was the Indiana Dunes which is a national park. I grew up close to Lake Ontario and I went to college in a town close to Lake Erie. I have fond memories of heading to the lake on hot summer days but I have no recollection of sand dunes. I was impressed with the lake Michigan and the Indiana dunes. There was plenty of hiking and beautiful beaches.
While growing up, my parents threw all us kids into the back of the family station wagon and we drove to Cape Cod. I kept reminding myself, this was not Cape Cod, this was not the Ocean, it didn’t have the salty smell, it smelled earthy and yet, the dunes and the beaches reminded me of Cape Cod.
I realized that across the lake, we could see Chicago!
