It seemed time to move on. We’ve enjoyed our stay at McLain State Park and have only begun to explore the treasures of the Keweenaw so we’re looking forward to our next opportunity to visit here. Now we are staying at Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park in the western U.P. and still on the Superior shore. The Union Bay Campground is located approximately where there was a small isolated copper mining community in the 1840’s. We’ve enjoyed a slower pace this afternoon. Stayed home and fired up the charcoal grill for steak and potatoes!
Winter Magic in Medina
By deliberate choice we were in Medina for all the winter holiday festivities from Candlelight Walk in the days before Thanksgiving through A Christmas Carol and A Celtic Christmas as well as an Alex Bevan Concert and a historic house tour all the way through Medina’s 31st Ice Festival but perhaps the highlight was the town hosting hundreds of folks whose homes and lives were devasted by Hurricane Helene at the A Promise of Christmas Event the middle of January. It’s an honor to be a part of this amazing community!
We are the ones with the new “dresser” in our T@B, from Tearstock. If you are coming back through Michigan via the lower peninsula, you may want to stop at the restaurant “Leggs Inn” It’s in the city of (kind of near Petoskey) Cross Village. There is a road M-119 that runs from Harbor springs to Cross Village called the “Tunnel of Trees” It’s very scenic. Leggs Inn is a very cool woodsy polish restaurant. We lived in Michigan for 50 years and it’s been fun watching your travels to places we’ve been before. Thanks for the memories.
Hi, Charlie & Shelly! We’ve been thinking about you guys and talking about your custom mod as we’ve been giving tours of our T@B. Thanks for the recommendation! It may be a while before we make it to the Petosky area, we’ll make an effort to visit Legs Inn. We have it as a Bookmark on our Yelp app!
