Big Bay Lighthouse B and B

So in the last post you read about the UP Builders Show. One part of me getting thru that was the help of my honey. He hauled all of my stuff for my 2 booths to the dome and dragged it to where I set up. He helped unload saunas. He directed traffic. He bought me wine. :-) I am spoiled rotten! Anyhow, for some little R and R, he took me to Big Bay Lighthouse B and B. Let me tell you this place was amazing. We were treated like VIP. We got a nice tour when we got there and then went walking around the grounds. Waking up Saturday morning was amazing. The view from our window was the sunrise. Breathtaking. We did go outside to watch too. Breakfast was made from scratch by the owners, Jeff and Linda. We had coffee, hot apple cider, tea, oj, cranberry blueberry juice, blueberry bread that was amazing, grapefruit with honey mint sauce, bacon, oatmeal blueberry pancakes yumyumyum. After breakfast we went up to the top of the tower for a view, again breathtaking, and then went for a drive. For lunch we ended up at the Lumberjack Tavern, the home of the Anatomy of a Murder book and movie. We met the owner, Jack, great great service Jack! So we ordered lunch. I had the LBJ...the lumberjack. Let me tell you folks I am picky about my burgers and this was, hands down, THE BEST BURGER I have ever had. Anywhere. We already have a trip planned to bring our two teenage boys back up to try it out. Anyhow, we got a good history lesson about the murder there in 1952. We talked and laughed and ate and had a great time. Thanks for shot glass Jack, we will definitely be back!!! If you want to take a nice drive, that burger it well worth the drive!!! After lunch we went hiking up to the top of Thomas Rock and that was an adventure let me tell ya, but since I am on my phone, we will talk about that another post. We had dinner at ThunderBay for the prime rib. I am not a fan of prime fib myself but tony had it and he loved it!! Back to the lighthouse to have wine and play cards. And waking up again to the most beautiful sunrise ever. We stayed in bed this time. Got up just in time for another fabulous breakfast.

I may do another post when I am on my computer and go into detail about the lighthouse. And maybe the sauna...well..maybe I will keep that for my other blog ;-)

Don't ever skip that day to just go take a drive or just go for a walk. We live in a place where it is just too damn beautiful to take for granted. Enjoy every minute of it.
