That’s the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I know I’ve written about it, but I wanted to share some of the pictures. We had a great mini-vacation up north, and were very glad we were able to make the trip!
Here is a composite picture of the Mackinac Bridge.

The Pictured Rocks National Seashore was quite spectacular – check it out!


And here are Gary and I on the sunset Vesper Cruise, with the Mackinac Bridge behind us.

If you’d like to see more photos of this beautiful area, check out the “flickr” slide show on the side bar!

It’s hard for us to believe that we’ve been traveling about the country (well, the eastern half of it anyway) for a full year. What had seemed like a far off dream for so very long, is now old news. It just doesn’t seem possible!
We’ve had an amazing year. We’ve been as far north as Copper Harbor, Michigan (which is only a couple of degrees farther north that our Maine stop or our visit to beautiful Georgian Bay in Ontario), as far south as Fort Myers, FL, and as far west as Eureka Springs, Arkansas. We’ve had our toes (or more) in the Atlantic Ocean, Gulf of Mexico, all of the Great Lakes, and Georgian Bay. We’ve driven through mountains and valleys, and descended into caves and mines. All along we have continued to marvel at the amazing country we live in, and the Awesome God that has created such a place and allowed us the privilege to be traveling through it.
But more than the “places to see and things to do”, we’ve been able to connect with friends and family – some of whom we hadn’t seen in many, many years. We’ve made new friends and seen first hand how beautiful and diverse the Family of God is. Our work with the SOWER Ministry has blessed us in too many ways to recount. We have been able to use our skills and abilities while still having time to “see” the country. The friends we’ve made and the different communities we have been a part of have all been part of the treasures of this trip.
And so we continue on. We’ve found that living in our RV has added a new dimension to our relationship to each other, our relationship to the world around us, and our relationship to our Awesome God. Until He tells us otherwise, we’re content to be serving Him from our little house on wheels. Thanks for stopping by our website – it’s good to have you along! Please feel free to add a comment or send along a hello! We’d love to hear from you!
We have so much to see, and so much yet to learn!
And yes, we are still working on getting to the West Coast!
