Day 5
I headed north from the vanfossen's up to a town about 12 miles through a bunch of farms. There is a bike trail that goes from behind the white hall town library all the way up to the town of Hart (home of the least mexican tasting food i've ever had, but i'll get to that). Now for the record the bike path seemed like a great idea it was straight and flat(i think, but could have been slightly up hill), and was surrounded by alot of trees and trees. It got a little borring though and I probably should have stopped in at the towns that i was passing along the way. the whole time on the trail i was so excited to go to this huge burger place up in Hart. We're talking the kind of burger place that Guy Fietti (sp?) goes into and they have a sign on the wall that says if you eat this whole burger its free...kinda place. Devastation hit when I got up to Hart and found out that the burger place was actually 5 miles back in Shelby GRRRRRR! But there was hope! The shop owner said there was a good mexican place in town that I could go to. He had me at Mexican...off I went and this is what brings us to the "La Fiesta Rule"
La Fiesta Rule: Just because it is made by Mexicans and is wraped in a tortilla doesn't mean its good mexican food.
This was the least satisfying meal of the trip and nearly ruined my day Fortunately down the way in Pentwater there was a campground with my name on it and a very clean set of showers and friendly people camping next to me that wanted to hang out. The town of Pentwater is like two blocks from the camp ground and the campground is right on the beach (see pic) but i still managed to get some shade which pretty much made my day. I went to Pentwater Pizza for dinner and had a few beers around town just to flush out the bad mexican. Jerry and Susan ( I think) were the bikers next to me in the camp ground and they invited me over for some jack and coke after i got back from town. (bikers drinking Jack thats a little predictable I thought it was funny too, or maybe that was only funny to me cause i'm alone alot and i'm getting alittle crazy) any who they asked me a ton of questions about what i sleep in and what i carry etc. Ok night sleep not great and I was off again in the morning.
