Into the upper peninsula

We drove north on M31 which follows the coast.  There are some gorgeous homes and beautiful views in some of the towns.  We drove by many cherry orchards and I tried really hard to get a picture as we drove by, but just got blurs!  We’ll stop when we’re driving the car and maybe find a u-pick.

We crossed the LONG Mackinac Bridge ($14 for a motorhome towing a car!), and I took pictures the whole way.  Our campground is on the Lake Michigan side of I-75, just west of St Ignace.  It’s up on a hill overlooking the lake. 

After we got set up, we took a drive west and then east along the coast.  There really wasn’t a whole lot to see.  We stopped at a park at the Cut River bridge and took a short walk.  Baxter saw some grass, so got to chase a Frisbee. 


We drove back through the town of St Ignace, which has a really pretty municipal marina.

Looks like a multi-use water tower!
