What a wonderful Labor Day weekend at the Belle Isle Inn! Look closely in the picture above and you can see me waving, just above the guy in the red shorts. I was laboring as you can see! The weather could not have been more perfect to labor or not to labor. We had filled the cooler and headed to the beach. The water was shades of aqua, teal and blue, and was warm enough to swim and play in as you can see. The day was really warm yet the breeze off the lake was blowing pretty good so we were very comfortable. Tourists mingled with locals, walking dogs, swimming, playing volleyball, enjoying a cold drink and watching whales (not really) but that would have been cool. I met so many people including Mike who teaches at Algoma High School and his wife, and Tom, retired from Green Bay, and his friend LuWaine, among others. We romped in the waves and played with the dog who was ecstatic to dig a hole and submerge herself in the cool sand. If you've been to the Algoma beach that's great. If you've been here and haven't taken advantage of it, c'mon back! There is a special area for dogs to the south, to the north are the volleyball nets and in the middle is the great view from the Algoma Chamber of Commerce where you can use the restrooms and wash the beach off your feet. The view of the red Algoma Pierhead lighthouse was especially beautiful against the many shades of aqua lake water. I saw may people taking photographs off the decks of the Chamber during our stay the beach. I'm looking forward to many more day days at our scenic Algoma Beach.

Hi Tia, Thanks so much for stopping by my blog and leaving your heartfelt comment. I saw you waving in the water. :) It looks like you really enjoyed the day. I hope your ankle surgery goes well for you and it won't be long before you are running into the water and all around the inn. Take care and I hope you will visit theVintageNest often. ~ Lynn
