Last month we celebrated my Dad's 95th birthday in Michigan and then my sister and two of her friends and I drove up north to Mackinac Island for an interdenominational Christian women's meeting. We took the ferry over to the island and stayed overnight one night in The Grand Hotel built in the 1800s and truly grand. You may recognize it as the place Christopher Reeve's movie "Somewhere in Time" was filmed(a time traveler romance with Jane Seymour). The last shot in this group is from the filming of that movie with him in a sportscar.
Four of us shared a room which helped whittle the cost but you can imagine 4 women trotting endlessly to the potty during the night.
The food was out of this world delicious, multiple courses, just tops. It is good we didn't stay more than one night poundage wise!
There are no cars on the island, only horses which was a wonderful change. There is one main street loaded with fudge shops and they call the vacatiioners "fudgies". The weather was a bit overcast but we still could see some Fall colors. All in all a fine trip. Here are some pictures including one of my dad and one of my sister. These photos were taken with a cell phone so quality isn't so hot:
