We traveled from WI into Michigan's Upper Peninsula (UP, or Yooper, as the Yoopers like to call it) across the Mackinac Bridge, where Lake Michigan is on the west side and Lake Huron on the east. It was mid morning, and very foggy most of the way along the waterside. We continued south on SR 131 and stopped to camp for 2 nights in Kalaska. It is about 23 miles east of Traverse City, where the "national cherry festival" was being held. Once again, it rained most of the day and night. Today, we left in the rain, but the skies later cleared. We went up SR 37 to Old Mission to see the lighthouse and land north of us. It was beautiful, with many lakes, cherry orchards, horse farms, corn fields, potatos, wineries, and woods. What beautful country! Tomorrow, Friday, July 9th, we will be in Bryron Center where we will spend the weekend visiting family.
