Bond Falls

Bond Falls is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been! I can't believe I had never been there before, although I've driven through Paulding many times and passed the signs. There are well-kept walkways all along the falls (sadly, I missed any photos of them!) and benches at the bottom of the falls. There are several levels of the falls; pictured here are right and left shots of the lowest level.

I'm planning to return to this picturesque place! Hint: It's also a perfect, romantic spot to visit with someone special! :) 

Cliff Hike

The Upper Peninsula of Michigan is a beautiful place to live!

With my school schedule this Summer, I didn't accomplish any of the adventures that are perpetually on my Summer-in-the-Keweenaw list, such as visiting Isle Royale or hiking in the Porcupine Mountains. I did have the opportunity to go hiking one Sunday afternoon near where I live, and I was struck once again by the awesome beauty of this place I call home!

We found this old stone tower and a stone foundation. I'm not sure what it is from, but there is a lot of mining history around here. After the hike we enjoyed a nice dinner at the Michigan House.
