Goodbye Michigan

The last of two ships we saw before leaving Superior.

This morning we said goodbye to Whitefish Point and left the northern most point of Michigan that we have visited on our vacation.  I do not know the name of the passing ship that gave us pause as we visited Lake Superior one last time before we left.  It was great fun to have one last glimpse before we left.  I did thoroughly enjoy the ships and the Great Lakes Museum.

The rest of the day was kinda dreary.  We had intended to make the trip through Michigan visiting a few places of interest while driving south toward Indiana.  We ended up mostly just looking out the windows of the car trough the rain and venturing out a few times when it was only lightly misting.  We visited Lake Michigan for a few minutes to get pictures before it started raining and off we went again.  

By evening and hours of driving, we made it to Big Rapids and Ferris State University.  We drove around campus for a while to look around at all that had changed since Troy attended and then we were off again.  We made really great time today, so good that we have left Michigan for Indiana now.  I can now say I have been to Grand Rapids, Traverse City, Kalamazoo, and about a hundred other small villages, townships, and cities.

Tomorrow it is the Auburn-Cord Duesenberg Museum and Das Dutchman Essenhaus Restaurant.
