Land O’ Lakes

We left Petoskey, MI and headed back over the Mackinaw Bridge for the third time in about a week and a half. By this time we were pros! We drove just over 300 miles almost all the way through the Yooper (Upper Peninsula of Michigan) to arrive in Northern Wisconsin Read more…

Petoskey

After successfully driving over the Mackinac Bridge (winds had died down and we were able to drive 45 mph) we drove another 50 miles to Petoskey to stay at the Hearthside Grove Motorcoach Resort. We had heard about the resort for years as one of the countries best. Beautiful sites Read more…

We left our friends, Kirbie and Brian Stephens, behind at their home in Saugatuck where we ”mooch-docked” for the past week. We had a wonderful time there and really enjoyed them taking us around their hometown. We stopped for diesel on the drive – $5.79 / gallon!!! This is getting Read more…
