Misty day at the beach

After my cooking frenzy, I knew I needed to walk, but it was one of those horrible hot and muggy gray days. A little voice in my head said, "The Lake, you dummy!" I knew it was right-- it would be cooler at lakeside, and it would be wonderful to just listen to the waves. But I didn't want people around, and I didn't want to have to climb over the dunes to get to the lake, so I headed to Warren Dunes, where I could park 100 yards from the water, and head straight for that perfect walking path just above the highest point of the waves. It was gray and misty, but cooler, and only rained for maybe 5 minutes during my walk (3.6 miles!)
