One Step at a Time #13

One Step at a Time #13

It is time for One Step at a Time #13. This past week, I got to spend some time on my old stomping grounds, the Indiana Dunes National Park.

A scenic view of a landscape with a large tree in the foreground, surrounded by smaller trees and grassy areas, with sandy hills in the background under a cloudy sky.

On this particular day, I headed to West Beach and hiked over the sand dunes for some views of Lake Michigan.

  1. Beautiful landscapes!

  2. Beautiful photos of those sand dunes. As children our parents would take us to Indiana Dunes when we lived in northwest Indiana.

  4. Beautiful pictures, Pepper. Makes me miss the dunes in FL very much, since I grew up there. Here’s my contribution. It’s a blessing blogging with you. https://heavenlyraindrops.com/2026/06/09/avoid-floating-through-life/

    1. Thanks, Sue. Quite a difference from FL to where you live now, isn’t it? Thanks for sharing the floating mountains on your link. Beautiful! 😊
