The Lake Huron shore here at P.H.Hoeft State Park looks remarkably like the Gulf shore in Pinellas did years ago. But when we engage other senses, there are significant differences. First is the absence of the saltwater smell, and then there’s the distinct temperature difference! Â Unlike the Gulf which is often as warm as bath water, this is chilly as one of the mountain streams at Tween Creeks. We enjoyed wading but only up to our ankles. Perhaps at midday when it’s warm and sunny, a swim would be refreshing but right now it’d be a much too chilly prospect! Another stark difference is the pebbles along the shore instead of seashells! A most refreshing experience for these Gulfcoast Kids!
Burgh House Hampstead
Off the beaten path is Hampstead is the more than three hundred year old Burgh House with a fascinating history. It’s now a community center, local museum, gallery, concert venue, event space, and more open to the public four days a week. We popped over for a bite to eat and to peruse the galleries to learn a little more about Hampstead history.
