Mackinac Island, July 6, last day

Woke up today, our last day on Mackinac Island, to rain and fog. It’s been cloudy and cool all day with on and off sprinkles. 5pm, and currently 68 degrees. However, not much breeze, but since the winds were suppose to be out of the north and we are on the south end of the island, that would be expected. We went to church this morning for worship and communion at Trinity Episcopal Church. After church we spent a good part of the afternoon walking around downtown. Window shopping and walking through some of the stores, watching the fudge making and tasting fudge, getting lunch at Sea Biscuit Café, walking around some more, and then Ice Cream at Ryba’s. Did see something interesting today. The changing out of a horse team in the middle of town. I asked one of the livery employees and he said normally they change the teams out mid day at the barns. But this team didn’t get changed out and according to the livery employee, were getting a little rough. So they just unhitched them downtown and another livery employee walked the team back to the barn, and then brought a new team back to the carriage.En savoir plus
