Two new Lakes

Jill caught Les’s cold, she is not a happy camper. Rainy and cloudy good day to travel. Will have to come again to take boat trip to see Picture Rocks National Shore. Traveling on US 2 again, and we got glimpses of Lake Michigan. Has lots of “sandy beaches” and in places, sand covering road. Jill wanted to stop before going over Mackinac Bridge, but Google and what was on ground didn’t match. Had to pay to cross the bridge. Lake Heron on one side, Lake Michigan on the other. We saw a lot of Farm tractors going the other way on the bridge, not fast, slowing traffic to a stand still. Must have been a Farmer’s protest…for or against something but we don’t know what.

Last night we decide to spend 4 nights in Michigan Wilderness State park, so we can pick up meds in Cheboygan on Tuesday. We both can use a break from traveling . We used Michigan’s reservation system. $48. per night with electricity. Not bad. What they didn’t say was that you had to pay a vehicle day use fee of $11.00 per motorized vehicle RV+tow rig., when you get there..yep $22.00 dollars a night! We got annual passes, which really didn’t save us much, unless we stay in another park. Why does a motorhome, have to pay more than a trailer! If we felt better we might have left…there is probably a charge for cancellations! The park is lovely though. We pulled in, set up. We both just took naps, traveling is hard when you’re older.Lue lisää
