Today we wandered up to Sleeping Bear National Seashore. Found a wonderful cg, have never been in one this luxurious that we recall. Big sites, each site has 2 chairs and fire pit, bricked pads, beautiful landscaping. There are 2 of us here and the cg closes on the 20th.
We are starting to encounter some minor challenges to find open cgs so it is a good thing we are winding down our wandering. We will finish going around Lake Michigan and then will start heading west. Our first planned stop is Forest City, IA to go through the Winnebago plant and then on to Pender, NE to have a part installed on the MH. From there we will meander toward Phoenix. Plans are to stop at Santa Fe for a few days as we have never been there for any length of time.
Our visit to Sleeping Bear was great. 400’ sand dunes, just awesome. After visiting Sleeping Bear we went around the peninsula to Traverse City, pleasant drive, starting to finally see some more color.
We found a great restaurant with the help of Yelp. This is the second time we have used Yelp to find us a restaurant and both have been very good.
We are in a town called Empire, it is between the northern and southern portions off Sleeping Bear. Thought we would eat out. 2 restaurants in town: burger/sandwiches and burger/sandwiches/pizza. Decided to eat in.
The next day we visited the lower half of of Sleeping Bear and it was not very interesting. We then went to Traverse city to do some food shopping. The drive to Traverse was pretty, you can tell the main crop around here is apples, field after field of apples. Did our shopping and drove back. Just after we got back the skies opened up, We have managed to just miss the downpours 3-4 times this trip. Lucky.
We are hoping as we move to the UP that we see more color. Tomorrow will be our first day in the UP.
