Silver Islet

Nate and I took off yesterday to Silver Islet on the Sleeping Giant, a peninsula in Lake Superior. We kayaked close to the shore and saw some of the most beautiful landscapes I've ever seen!


Nate had the best time explaining all the geology of the area. Isn't this sea-arch awesome?! It was a tight squeeze, but I paddled through it. There was an artist painting the arch and the surrounding scenery on a cliff nearby.

Nate also taught me how to skip rocks. Apparently, I never really learned how to throw at all! So he taught me how to do that too ;)

This is the first time I've paddled this much and I now know why Nate is so in love with it. You really do feel one with the water. Honestly, I just felt so cool! Paddling is almost effortless. It was such a wonderful experience. I can't wait to go more and more! I'm glad we will have a kayak in Utah for us again!

P.S. Old Dutch has bacon flavored chips. I'm in heaven.

  1. So fun! Glad you guys are having a blast. I'm thinking you need to bring some of these Old Dutch chips you speak of home to Utah and share with your favorite neighbors :)

  2. That's sooo awesome Lacey! Kayaking is so much fun! I loved the times we go to go in Bradenton and in Milwaukee:) Good times! You're reminding me of all the wonderful adventures Adam and I had before we had Eden. I wouldn't change those special times for anything. Live it up and cherish these sweet moments!
