Library Card + Michigan State Park = Reading in the Great Outdoors

Library Card + Michigan State Park = Reading in the Great Outdoors

That library card is worth a free pass to a state park this year in Michigan

until September 25.  Check with your local library to see if they have signed

up for this free state park program.  There are also free hammocks as long

as supply lasts.

Glen Lake MI from Look Out Point

I would love to take a good book to the beach and read for a few hours

with the waves lapping, and my hammock swaying in the breeze.  In fact,

I have a new mystery thriller that probably need to be read in the open air,

a lot less scary. When my imagination and the plot thickens, I can look up

and see a serene scene to bring me back to reality.

Or you could just wander the beach and soak up the beautiful

Michigan scenery. Either way, it is a great offer !
