Limestone. It's basically the snack of the Earth. Just don't eat it, because my hoomans say it doesn't taste too good. It's because it's made from ancient sea critters, like shells and coral, that got smooshed together over millions of years. Imagine a giant cosmic belly flop of clams and fish bones.

This island is located on Lake Huron, nestled between Michigan's Upper and Lower Peninsulas.

Luie Boone says it isn’t just a paradise for people, it’s also a dream for dogs. With its clear waters, scenic trails, and friendly lakeside towns, it’s the perfect place to explore with your furry sidekick.
