last thursday, i went on a road trip to iron river with the pup – to visit a coffee shop called the bearded apple and meet a friend & her pup for a picnic.

there were so many places i wanted to stop and take pictures along the way but i left the house a wee bit later than i planned, so i only allowed myself to stop twice – a park next to this lake was one of them. (i actually drove by at first, but then i turned around and went back because i knew i’d be sorry if i didn’t.)

doesn’t it just look like a lake plumbago?
