Tuesday September 16, 2008: Mackinac Island, Michigan












rode from thompson mich to mackinac island, 100 miles, and 8 mile loop around island.
last 50 miles right along lake michigan. 2nd prettiest only to glacier national park!

slow going very windy wind comin off lake 30 mph side winds and had to keep from blowing
into traffic.

pics grand hotel at mackinac they made a movie there once*, and a guy who is actually a worse speller than me

doing 100 miles tomorow. tired but healthy having good time great weather today you would swear you are at the ocean sandy beaches and waves also, on island there are no motorized vehicles allowed never has been only bikes and horses pretty cool the houses would put the
houses in se1 to shame at one time john kerry owned a house here see mackinac bridge
see main street.
* movie is SOMEWHERE IN TIME filmed in 1980 starring Christopher Reeves and Jane Seymour
