Put a little Gravel In Your Travel
Seriously dorky title, but we couldn't stop singing this song.
On the way home from Munising, in typical Jim Craig fashion, I decided to suggest "short cut". This route looks WAY shorter! Um, yes of course it's shorter, until you realize its DIRT ROADS.

Brad is out tracking down fire wood, Lizzy is ...
