Midwest Tour

Lighthouse, Muskegon, MI

Large wooden pike

Meghan and I "made the rounds" this Memorial Day and paid a visit to several family members in the Upper Midwest. We began our trip at a cousin's wedding on Lake Michigan over the holiday weekend. Then Meg took the ferry across Lake Michigan to visit with her family in Wisconsin, while I made a trip to Northern Michigan to see the grandparents. I then rejoined Meg at the family farm in Wisconsin after taking the same ferry trip across the lake with my Mom. For most of the trip the weather was quite pleasant and when it got too hot we could always find a lake nearby to take a quick dip. It was great to see so many friends and family. I think we got a bit homesick for the "luxuries" of the L48: delicious food, proximity of family, affordable housing. The pictures above are from the Northern Michigan leg of the trip.
