| Beaver Island Beach "sunrise" 8/10/17 |
What fun we’ve had in the Upper Peninsula (UP) of
Michigan! First stop was Drummond Island
the next day we docked at Mackinac Island, two days later we spent the night at
Beaver Island – hmmm, I see a pattern…
A few more pics from Mackinac Island –

Our time on Beaver Island was fun and FULL of history. Most of what I’ve learned is that I have a
lot to learn!! The determination,
strength and bravery it took to migrate & discover new land – surrounded by
water! – is phenomenal to me. We really
take dots-on-a-map for granted, don’t we?
Of course, I was walking all around the harbor with Karen from
Tranquillity III…and neither one of us had a camera (or phone)!! But we enjoyed every step and once again met
the nicest people – there’s a pattern in the “nice people” category too!
Today we are already underway to Petoskey or Harbor Springs-we
will decide at the half-way mark. Both
towns are on the “main land” and will be a great stop for a few days for boat maintenance;
oil/filter change on the engines and the generator, a soap & water wash down
on the exterior, fender scrubbing and the usual routine of laundry, grocery and
sightseeing…ahhh, the glamorous life of a looper!
Use today to discover something new then share it with
others!
God Bless!!
