We’re staying next to the Huron shore in Hoeft State Park with a bit of fairly new forest growth between us and the lake. It’s on land deeded to the state of Michigan in 1922 by the logging baron Paul H Hoeft. As we were preparing breakfast we were surprised by a sound that we thought was perhaps a foghorn. Our suspicions were confirmed br a quick walk to the beach. Sure enough, shoreline fog!
