Kids on dunes<\/p><\/div>\n

While in Indiana on Saturday I took the opportunity to check out the Indiana Dunes State Park<\/a>. I was expecting expansive Sahara-style dunes and some great photo ops. Well, not quite. I did get some photo ops, but the dunes were not expansive and they were mostly covered with vegetation. The park is mostly a beach. A very nice beach, to be sure, but a beach. It appears that the biggest draw was the 10 hiking trails. If I had been wearing better hiking gear (I wore sandals) and had more time I would have liked to have tried them.<\/p>\n

So… not a waste of time, but somewhat disappointing.<\/p>\n
