Running in Douglas

This weekend was Mark's and my anniversary(well actually it is today). We celebrated by spending the weekend in the Saugatuk/Douglas, MI area. For those who aren't aware of this area, it is a typical summer resort area near Lake Michigan. Very laid back, artsy, old fashioned. Of course we were at a gay resort, so I am not too sure how old fashioned it could be.

My run yesterday took me through the sleepy town of Douglas. Douglas sits on Lake Kalamazoo. It is full of charm. I wanted to get a short run in, so I did some laps around the center of town. The odd tourist saw me bounding my way through the town. I was along the lake, in some neighborhoods, and along the main drag of Douglas.

The weather was plenty humid. I enjoyed my run though. While it was slow, I was fine with taking it slow in the hot and humid weather.

I got back to the resort where Mark was in the pool. A nice dip in the pool really caps off a hot run.
