We stayed another day, walked down to the lake by our campsite, walked the river-walk along the Kalamazoo River in Marshall, and had dinner at the Dark House Tavern with Paula and Steve.
We picked the campsite we're in because it has some shade and was flat. We soon learned that we were under a tree that was pelting us with berries. Do you know a large, deciduous tree that has blue berries? These berries have a high sugar content and are sticky on the bottoms of your shoes. A little internet search identified the tree as a hack berry tree. Who knew? We've gone from acorns to hack berries. These are previously unknown hazzards to camping in September.

| The hack berries are pretty dry, do to this year's drought conditions |
