... operation since 1927 and is the longest 24-inch, narrow-gauge railroad in the U.S. The 45-minute ride took us through forests, the habitat of deer, black bear, moose, eagles, and sand hill cranes. I believe the only thing we did not see was a moose and I was a little surprised since Newberry is the Moose Capital of Michigan. At the end of the train ride, we were deposited at the dock on the Tahquamenon River for a 21-mile cruise to the falls on the ...

... their first fairly big boat, and got off on the other side at about 1:20, greeted by Shawna Rainville and her kids, who are visiting with friends on Manatoulin Island--a total fluke. (We would have missed them if we were on the 7 am ferry!)
After a quick visit, we were on our way and the highway was much less busy than the last time we were on it (July 5th I believe) so we made good time and arrived in Sault Ste Marie by 6 pm. The border crossing ...
