Ever since we first crossed the Straits of Mackinac via the Mackinac Bridge, also known as the Mighty Mac and as the Big Mac Bridge, in 2012 we’ve been fascinated with this engineering wonder. This 5th longest suspension bridge in the world weighs more than a million tons and includes 42,000 miles of cables! Not only that it does an amazing job of connecting Michigan’s Lower and Upper Peninsulas.
Thanks to the organizational skills of Mandy & Kgreat weekend of endrick, the amazing support of their team, and the sponsorship of nüCamp RV we enjoyed a great weekend of camaraderie and fun at the Northeast Rally. Gathering with fellow teardrop aficionados is always an enriching experience and this gathering in the Adirondacks was no exception.
Over a long weekend we sampled some of the myriad things to do in Cuyahoga Valley National Park, unique among national parks for it’s environmental reclamation, historic preservation, and recreational opportunities adjacent to the populous cities of Cleveland and Akron in northeastern Ohio. Can’t wait to return and explore more.
Our journey from Portsmouth, England to our home in Ohio might have been accomplished in about sixteen hours but my avoiding air travel we were able to enjoy a fifteen day journey home via train, ship, Uber, train, as well as our own feet and finally our personal vehicle.
Sharon & I just got back from there 2 weeks ago. We rented a bike and rode the 8.2 miles around the Mackinac Island, dodging meadow muffins!
That sounds like an awesome adventure! Have to admit we had to turn to Urban Dictionary to learn what meadow muffins are: https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=meadow%20muffin
Definitely makes sense though on the streets of Mackinac Island!
