Read of the week: Lake
On vacation with my family in northern Michigan, I took a break from most things this week, including online reading. Instead, I spent a lot of time reading the surface, waves, and moods of Lake Huron.

Dawn over Lake Huron, the east coast of Michigan 
Perfect beach day 
Tawas Point Lighthouse 
I did an open water swim in the lake almost every day this week. 
Northern Michigan white sand beach
That, and a novel or two.
Time off — and offline — is essential.
