Northern Adventures

   Pat and I had the opportunity of visiting Justin Cooper before moving away from Marquette
 a couple months ago. It was great to escape from the daily grind of things and all the responsibilities of life for a few days and just enjoy good company, nature, photography, no schedules or phone service, bicycles, local eateries, random adventures and overall the perfect road trip experience. Thank you Jaci and Justin for having us and look forward to the upcoming adventures also!
 






We stopped at Canyon falls on The Sturgeon River. It was great to go off the beaten path, take photos, enjoy sunshine and to slowly transition into the day before riding later. The lighting with all the reflections on the water and the backlit sky made photos relatively difficult but still managed to get a few shots.
 
 


 
 Justin told us about this little town called Sawyer, MI and how it was an old abandoned military facility and airport. We decided that would be a great place to go ride one of the days we were up north. It turned out to be a great adventure and made for some great memories and photographs as
well!



 





 


 
   Saturday night there was a going away party for Justin and Jaci. It was great to meet a bunch of their friends from work and to just let loose after an eventful day. Between beerpong, flippy cup and shots the night got a little fuzzy!
 
 
  
The last day we stayed in Marquette it was a rainy cool day. Recovering from the night before we went thrift shopping, ate a good breakfast and relaxed until the afternoon. Later in the day we checked out the new skate plaza which was located next to the old skate park which we visited a few years before. All in all I am very thankful for the trip and the ability to have escaped normal day life and enjoy good company and adventure with friends. I can't wait for the next trip so I have another excuse to get lost, take photos and ride bicycles.
