Our Sunday Drive

Heading north across the bridge--we're going out to breakfast in the Soo!

Snow in the Soo? Already? WTF?!

Our daughter, Jamie's, house in the student ghetto.
She lived here while attending college in the Soo.

We first watched this freighter while it was navigating the Soo Locks then encountered it many more times as we drove along the shore of the Saint Mary's River and Lake Huron.

This Crab Apple tree was LOADED with fruit!

A REAL man isn't embarrassed to be seen with a sissy dog in a sweater.
(Umm...but maybe he should be!)

We stopped to let Maisy see the deer in front of a small convenience store near Barbeau, Michigan.

Who says you can't find a rest area in the U.P?

We looked upstream...

... and down.

Detail of the reflections in the water.

Half the fun is never knowing what you might find around the next bend in the road!

Ouch! That's gotta hurt.

High and Dry

An old boat dock near De Tour Village

When you least expect it, you can discover America--even in the middle of nowhere!


Home Sweet Home!

Looks like a great trip! Love the bridge video in daylight and again coming home at night.

That's what happens, Mike, when you talk your husband into taking you out for breakfast then lollygag around so much on the drive home that you get out of cooking supper as well! ;)

I don't know if this will work; this thing hasn't let me leave a comment in awhile! (I don't have any of those silly accounts but now I notice it has an anonymous option...guess that'll work).
You made me a little homesick with these pictures! It almost looks like Brandon's car is still in the driveway!

I know what you mean, Jes. I got kinda choked-up driving past their old house. There's a lot of memories there. It's never the same visiting the Soo without you girls there. :(
