External Studio #2

The latest external studio takes me to Presque Isle State Park, one of the nation's most visited National Parks. Presque Isle is not only a beautiful area for outdoor activities such as bike riding, beach going, site seeing, fishing, and sand vollyball, but it has a rich history behind it all. Misery Bay, a section of Presque, was the temporary home of Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry’s fleet during the War of 1812, and there are monuments to signify this, such as the Perry Monument as shown to the left. Presque Isle is also home to a few lighthouses, one of which was the second lighthouse ever built on lake erie.
The beaches at Presque Isle are a great place to hang out in the summer months, whereas in the winter, they can be mighty cold! Here is a picture taken at beach 11 where there is a bit of ice floating about.
Although the beaches are not warm enough to go swimming and such, the biking trails are beginning to be inhabited nowadays.
The rest of my weekend adventure on the beach was not to exciting.. it was cold and not so sunny out. I did happen to cook some cheddar brats and skipped stones on the lake and found some dead animals, but thats about it. Here is a slideshow of a few other pictures I took while I was there.

I have opinions of my own, strong opinions, but I don't always agree with them.
