The Sweet Smell Of Michigan

Park City is the perfect place for winter but Charlevoix is the perfect place for summer. Charlevoix is right off of Lake Michigan in northern Michigan. My two aunts and grandma live there, and we visit every summer. My one aunt had co-owned a restaurant there called The Landing's for as long as I can remember but they closed it last year. It will be different not having it there this summer and I'll miss it. Every summer that we are there, they have the Venetian Festival. It's just like the 4th of July here but it lasts a whole week! They also have a carnival, boat parade, concerts every night and so much more. I can't wait for this summer!

Camp Daggett, it's the place I wish I could spend the rest of my life. Its a camp I've gone to for five years and this summer will be my sixth summer. It's a girls and boys camp that's on Walloon Lake in Michigan. At camp you do everything from arts & crafts to sailing to recreation to swimming. Every year that I go to camp I never plan on going with people I know, I always meet new people. My cabin & my brother cabin this past year was the best by far! We were always laughing and having a great time and I miss camp everyday wishing I could go back there. I remember our campout was the best one I've ever been on. We had to canoe three miles there and three miles back. We had played the game Honey If You Love Me and I don't think I've ever laughed so hard in my life. Then later we were all telling scary stories around the campfire when a tree fell down in the middle of the forest, I was scared half to death!!! Probably one of the scariest moments of my life. I have so many memories about this past years and stories that I will never forget.
