We made it! Got ourselves set up in the Leelanau Pines Campground in Cedar, MI near Traverse City and linked up with friends Vinnie & Colleen from Phoenix.
I have realized way too late that I did not take nearly enough photos to document our travels in this location - sigh ...
We spent a really great afternoon and evening with Sue Wells Danielson, a grade school, high school and college friend of John's, visiting her home on Glen Lake, wine tasting & dinner at the Cherry Republic in Glen Arbor, MI .
And then a trip through the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore and the Pierce Stocking Scenic Drive
Vinnie and Colleen (and Sophie) Scharneck were terrific hosts and our RV was parked just down the row from their summer home.
We had a wonderful boat ride on Lake Leelanau with a Bald Eagle performance, a shopping and lunch trip into Traverse City and a couple of Wine Tasting stops.
John has always been known as a submarine Bubblehead but this poster puts a new spin on it.
But we do celebrate each day!
And we did thoroughly enjoy this part of Michigan. It was a real eye opener and I think we are destined for a return visit down the road.
Vinnie took us to something he discovered deep in the Michigan woods - a really interesting private covered bridge / church
And we had a final dinner at The Cove restaurant in Lehland, Michigan at the north end of Lake Leelanau where it pours into Lake Michigan. It was a really nice evening including some other friends Jane & Jim and Don from the campground.
