Yesterday afternoon we drove an hour southeast of Chicago to Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore to camp for the night. The weather was spectacular and we spent the afternoon/evening along the shores of Lake Michigan.
The lakeshore isn't always the most appealing (look for the smoke stack from the local steel mill in the background), but it's fairly close to Chicago and we'll take what we can get.

Sunset from a nearby stretch of beach where we had a picnic dinner.
If you look closely you can see Chicago in the background rising from the water.
Our picnic - kiwis, celery and peanut butter, yellow dog, the essentials.
Camping went well and Lena loved the tent! Here are Morgan and Lena this morning.
