Michigan Trip--Day 2 The Sarett Nature Center

On Friday, day 2 of our trip, we went to the Sarett Nature Center in Benton Harbor, Michigan.


We saw marsh marigolds,

a garter snake,

skunk cabbage, and

a red squirrel.

Parts of the trail were under water, but we were able to walk quite a bit of the trail.

Michigan Trip--Day 2

A very full and busy day--check back next week for expanded coverage with photos.

Today we went to the Sarett Nature Center, ate lunch, then went geocaching, went to Lake Michigan, ate supper, then went to Andrews University for the evening meeting.

As we pulled up to our hotel after supper, we saw a bus in the parking lot from Canada--"they must be here for Bible Achievement", I said. When we went out to the car to leave for Andrews, we saw someone in the group by the bus with Pathfinder patches all over their jacket. At the seminary chapel, a lady came over and said she recognized us from the hotel--they are here from Quebec. Elder Dodge (the creator and leader of Bible Achievement) said in the meeting tonight that the clubs from Quebec travel 14 hours to get here.

At the evening meeting, we found out there are 45 teams here participating--over 700 people from 8 unions.


Must close for now --late--must rest up for tomorrow.
