As the smoke diminished somewhat over last weekend, I headed to the Lakeshore, hoping for a sunset. My first stop was Inspiration Point, where the sky was murky, but at the Glen Lake narrows, the sun was bright and visible. I reached the Dune Climb as the sun sank behind Sleeping Bear. It was eerily quiet, with no one climbing to watch the spectacular view. I proceeded to Empire Beach and found it mostly empty, too. I had my pick of front row parking spots, a rarity on summer evenings. As I listened to the waves rush ashore, it felt wonderful to be outdoors at the water again. But the haze occluded the sun, so all I got was a pink sky.
