Our last post was titled "We're Definitely in the North!" but I forgot to write the reasons for saying that. First of all, you don't see signs for snowmobile trails or snowmobile regulations down south. Second, the reputation of Michigan for having lots of large and hungry mosquitoes is alive and well as dawn and dusk outings will prove.
However, so far the beautiful weather overall has made our Michigan visit one to remember, as well as the many sights we've seen. There's only been two rain events this week- one very heavy one the on Monday night and a few storms in the area yesterday morning.
Tuesday dawned very cool with 30 MPH winds. Here is our first look at a very rough Lake Michigan.
The two guys below were enjoying the waves with a paddle board, although one was using it like a surfboard. We got tired just watching them battle the relentless surf.
We also managed to stroll through part of historic downtown Manistee and a section of the Manistee Riverwalk.
We've made several visits to the casino during our stay and only left about $25 there after considering our free play dollars we earned as well as some free food we received. That's not a bad price for the enjoyment we received from each outing. There were also several drives around the area to take in the mostly wooded and rural scenery.
Tomorrow we'll get the wheels on Little House moving once again as we head northeast to our next stop - Macelona, MI.
