There must be something magnetic about this place. There’s so many pretty places and interesting things to do in Michigan but as soon as we started to near Mackinaw we felt a pull to the Tahquamenon River. We’re staying in Tahquamenon Falls State Park in the Rivermouth Campground just a short walk from the spot on the riverbank where we witnessed a most colorful sunset this week in September 2012 when we were here in our Silver Shadow.
London’s Imperial War Museum in Southwark founded even as the First World War raged offers insights into the myriad costs of the wars of the 20th and 21st Centuries. It was a most disquieting but valuable reminder of the myriad costs of war.
The two of us have long been fascinated with the history of canals and their role in the history of transportation, industrialization, and more recently recreation. This stay in London has given us new opportunities to explore and learn more about how canals contributed to the growth of this great city and how they are being used and preserved today.
It was a most educational visit to the newly renovated National Portrait Gallery at Trafalgar Square in Central London. We were intrigued with the contemporary approach to presenting British History.
