20161003: Western Upper Peninsula

Left "home" at a little after 9. It was foggy, but by the time we had gone 50 miles west it was  clear and sunny. Saw 3 waterfalls, several lighthouses and had a nice picnic lunch. Also took many pictures of mushrooms - didn't know there were so many types. At 5pm we boarded the "Grand Island" tour boat for a 2 1/2 hour tour of the Painted Rocks of the Lake Superior shoreline. It was quite spectacular. "Home" at 9pm. Wonderful full day of great sights and family time.
