Who doesn’t love a good nature hike that finishes with a view of the beach?
Yesterday, my friends Sarah, Delaney, and I drove the 20-minute trek from Hope’s campus to Saugatuck Dunes State Park. We had no idea what we would find… but we discovered it was GORGEOUS. After arriving at the park, we wandered 15 minutes through the forest to the beautiful view. Not only were we enjoying the 60° weather, but we also practiced our yoga skills on the dunes and drawing skills in the sand. I could stay at the beach forever!
Here's the entrance to the park!
After wandering through the forest... we found the beach!
I sprinted toward the water and jumped in (but it was so cold!)

Why not take a good beach selfie? Photo cred: Delaney 🙂
Delaney and I on a GIANT rock at the beach. It was tough to climb up on, but we made it eventually. 🙂 I'm so thankful to have this girl in my life!
This seems to be our impression of the "Titanic." Sarah and I are always up for goofy photos and crazy adventures!
Me, Delaney, and Sarah all together on the beach! They're my besties and I don't know what I would do without them. We always support one another and encourage each other to grow in our faith and just grow as people, too. So blessed!
