Hoffmaster State Park March 4, 2013

We had a day at the beach today.  No swimsuits, more like snowsuits.  The temperature was
19 degrees when we started our walk from the entrance to Hoffmaster State Park camping area near Muskegon, Michigan.

 These deer were far south of us on the beach.  The smokestack is at Port Sheldon about 17 miles south of us.

What a great way to spend 3 hours outside with sunshine, blue sky, and ice.  We are lucky.

Here are a few more pictures of the "feathered ice"...

 

And a few more of the deer...
