A Stop at Elberta

So we made up to Elberta.
There is a little park just outside of Elberta where you can get a good view of the Frankfort entryway.  Back in the day, you might even catch a ferry like in the last port.  These days, there isn't that much shipping traffic.  The sun was starting to set.
Lake Michigan was a little on the angry side when we got up there.
I'm not sure what dunes these are but they look pretty cool.
I thought the skies would stay clear so that we could catch the comet here.  It would have been a nice spot.
The sun was still shining but clouds were starting to form in the skies.
Again, Lake Michigan was pretty angry.
the clouds did make for a cool effect though.
I kind of like the band of orange in the sky.
I think that was a coast guard boat passing by.
Both the channel marker and the lighthouse lit up.

Unfortunately, it started to really cloud up around the time the comet was supposed to appear, so I couldn't get pictures of that.  Maybe next time.
