Planning a trip to Mackinac island
Thinking of going to Mackinac Island later this month. What other sites would you recommend to see out that way? We try to stay away from any big cities.

If you take the Google Maps northern route to the Upper Peninsula there are a couple of places in SW Wisconsin that might interest you:

This is a really good BBQ restaurant in that area: https://www.bobsbitchinbbq.com/
When my wife and I take our road trips we check out Diner, Drive-ins, and Dives restaurants along the way. Been to about 60 of them around the country and haven't been disappointed. Some can get a little pricey but the food is unique and tasty. https://www.flavortownusa.com/
When we went to Mackinaw Island we stayed in Mackinaw City at the Super8 Bridgeview. The rooms were nice and the balconies on the Bridge side have a nice view. A good place to relax and enjoy an adult beverage at the end of a lot of walking.
Enjoy your trip!
Got a wedding in brooking South Dakota on aug 20. planning to leave sat headed east. Probably take two or three day to get close to Marquette. Will talk to you when we know what we are do for sure. 402 870 1209
I think county road H-58 near Grand Marais, thru Pictured Rocks NP is our curviest road. But what do we know, we are only Trolls, from under the Bridge

Oh wow! This is cool news!!
John and Jan from Michigan hole up at Skyline but they wait til after the New Year.
Please keep us informed out here as to ETA… will be happy to see you two again!
We have a lot of other roads to ride here other than the Kerrville April Ride roads you took. We have fun exploring and even if the road is a dead-end it can be interesting along the way. Just the other day we were on a lesser explored road and caught a glimpse of some giraffes through the trees… nowhere to be seen by the general public. Also caught a picture of a young white buffalo on the same road. On open range areas we have encountered a couple of llamas… you never know what we’ll find…. There is also a giant yellow pencil…yes…pencil …pointing toward a private road….don’t ask me how I know about that..
Oh… and the full size stagecoach with galloping horses…. Yup… we have fun watching for stuff..
New course heading Mr. Sulu: ...2nd star to the right and straight on til morning...!!
Scooter and Sassi....2 furrever.
You can try out the camper at Maggie Valley too.
We will be at Skyline Feb 15-Mar 15 site 26. When are you there?
Jan & John

Ya we don't get there until the 15t. Jan wants to spend a month at the beach (Port Aransas). But Paws and Double Trouble are close by so they can show you around.
See you in February

Hey, I have been riding with you and Jan for 6 years. I am only a hop, skip and jump away from the RV park.
My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style. – Maya Angelou
Figured that would get your goat, but paws and Dennis are only a hop away. See you in Feb!
If your in the 80s, this guy and friends will come and visit
