Mackinac Bridge

Hey this isn't necessarily related to the blog, but thought it was a cool pic. I have some more from under the bridge.

Edited to Add (ETA): I took this picture 30MAY09 from the Light House Tour Cruise in Mackinaw. This is from the top of the Shepler's Ferry. That is the UP side in the background.

I still say the walk in all our snowmobile clothes was NOT worth it....but we got a good pic.. :)

This picture was taken before climbing down 8 million stairs. I believe this was a better view...

Lastly, we met up at the this Tavern in Trout Lake. The boys want to go back for the upcoming festivities:

Our brief 2 hour trip turned into a 12 hour trip once we made it from Hulbert to Paradise to the Falls to Newberry to Trout Lake and then back to Hulbert... Yikes Tomorrow we are taking just a 1 hour trip!!!
