Lake Superior fun in the sand and sun because forever children we will play! The golden, magical days of summer. These are the days we spend outdoors, barefoot in the sand and water. It is a time to relax and just let things flow. 

LACLABELLE - Take a short road trip with us over the Portage Lift Bridge and into the Keweenaw Peninsula. First we drive to the east side of the Keweenaw. Our first stop was the Marina at LacLabelle Lake. The name LacLabelle is French for "Lake the Beautiful." 

BETA GRISE -Then we take a short drive to Beta Grise which is a 1500 acre nature preserve around the bay. Beta Grise is French for "Gray Beast". Local Legend says the musical voice that emanates from the sand is a Native American maid who lost her lover to the Great Lakes and still calls to him from the shores. The sand on the shore of Beta Grise is called the "Singing Sand". Legend claims the name Beta Grise came from sightings of a gray beast that roamed the area. Beta Grise Bay is also used as a designated "Harbor of Refuge" on Lake Superior by the Coast Guard. 

The Beta Grise road ends at the Mendota Ship Canal. This beautiful canal is used by boaters to get to the LacLabelle Marina. It is also the location of the Mendota Lighthouse. Here we played on the sandy shores where the wind blew our hair and the sun warmed our faces. There was a boat coming in the canal as we were playing. We launched the drone and recored some beautiful footage. 

We wiped the sand from our feet and hopped in the truck and headed to the west side of the Keweenaw Peninsula. On this day we visited Great Sand Bay. We launched the drone off the sandy cliffs to video the panoramic view of Great Sand Bay. It is fun to play in the beautiful wind swept sand dunes. An awesome place to take a swim in Lake Superior and to watch the exquisite sunsets as the day ends.
