... in Saskatoon for a quick lunch break.<br><br>Then drove on through. Drove along Hiway 13, reminiscing about our growing up years. Many trips un and down the hiway in 'party mode'. Couldn't help but notice the incredible changes. Would have loved to have stopped if time had permitted and weather had been better!!!<br><br>Great to be home. Michelle had delayed her departure home so we could have a visit. She a <br><br><br><br>

The Silver Lake Sand Dunes stretch two miles long and one mile wide bordering both Lake Michigan and Silver Lake. They're the only dunes east of the Mississippi that allows vehicle access. The 2,000 acres of sand dunes at Silver Lake were once covered by white ...

Left Upper Peninsula and arrived at Silver Creek RV Resort in early afternoon. This campground is by far the best campground we've stayed in since we left Florida. Each site has a double width concrete pad; the roads are paved; grass on each site is watered daily; has cable TV and it's very clean.

... kinds of fantastic salmon and funeral potatoes (morbid but delish!). We met their cool friends and enjoyed some beers and Sangria. <br><br> We had a wonderful time and added yet another town to our list of livables, especially if we get a boat. Thanks so much to Pam and Dave and all their friends who welcomed us warmly and kindly. We had a fantastic time and will be stopping by again!<br><br>Love to you all, the fishy, Bek and Jesse Train<br>

... restaurant there are room deodorizing spray cans in the bathroom. You can't beat that. I solute anyone conscious of the smell in their.... facilities. The theatre school should come up to Ludington and take notes.<br><br>Despite yesturdays follies I'm ready to get back on the road. We have about 60 miles to go today. We will hopefully take it easy on our very sore bodies. So.... back to the bikes!<br><br>The coast of Michigan is beautiful by the way.

... a good book with the sun warming your skin and the lake breeze ruffling your hair. It's the only place - so far - where I've been able to nap peacefully. Plus, my aunt likes to cook. And we like to eat. So it's fitting that we traveled there for our long Labor Day weekend. Not much else to write about, though, than what I've said above. It's just that kind of trip.

... of ships a year. The most famous being the Edmund Fitzgerald freighter so many years ago. We paid our respects to the lighthouse, dipped our feet in the ice cold water, jumped in the car and motored south. Our day of Northern Michigan adventures completed, we had an early night and prepared for our Chicago visit the next day.

... the Skyline chuckling at our effort to find Duluth's scenic highway last night? We decide to give driving the parkway one more try. This proves to be more frustrating than it is worth. This scenic route is not one continuous road. Signage from the end of one segment to the beginning of the next is not that great. After being dropped into Duluth for the third time we gave up. It was noon by now and we ...

... braclets. We quickly attended an orientation and signed up for 2 four hour work shifts. We loaded our gear onto the shuttle and the women took us back into the woods. We were dropped off at Sprouts (the daycare). I found my tent to be set up in the family camping area. Ryder and I spent an hour unpacking and putting our sleeping bags down.

... drive to Ludington takes almost 3 hours, but it is well worth it as always. The weather is absolutely beautiful, with only a few clouds in the sky and temperatures around 80. We park in a small lot at the end of an endless dirt road (yeah that doesn't make sense) and unload all of our stuff. Rob has so much hiking/camping gear and loves to show it off. If you think I like camping, multiply my excitement, amount of gear, and camping experience ...
