We are halfway to Winnipeg. 800 miles across Pennsylvania, Ohio into Michigan and north to Sault Ste Marie where crossed into Canada. We were in Sault Ste. Marie a couple of years ago on our trip around Lake Superior. But it has been many years since we crossed the Mackinac Bridge to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. It was a partly cloudy day and as we approached the bridge its towers were covered by hovering clouds and fog. It cleared up as we went over the bridge. People were slowing almost to a stop to photograph from the top. We continued along until we saw a sign that said "Bridge View" and we followed the signs to a lovely park that looked toward the bridge.
After leaving the park, it was a mere 50 miles to the "Soo". As we traveled along we reminisced about our trip to this area with Minga, when we visited Mackinac Island while they were filming Somewhere in Time,with Christopher Reeves. We also could not forget the camping reunion with the Schnierles and the Detroit cousins when we camped together and took the boats over to Mackinac Island. Good memories for today.
