Our stay in Cedarville has been quiet and pleasant. We've had campground visitors (see pictures) regularly which help show how peaceful the place is. I've twice see large hawks or eagles fly over with fish in their talons.
On Friday we drove up to Sault Ste. Marie to see the Soo Locks. We were lucky to see a ship go through without having to wait a long time. I forgot my camera so no picture for this experience.

Saturday the weather was bad until late so we just drove to St. Ignace to get out of the house.
Sunday morning we got going early and went to Mackinac Island before the forecasted afternoon showers and to try to beat the crowd. We had a wonderful time walking around checking out the "cottages", Arch Rock, Fort Mackinac, historic buildings and the town. They have done an awesome job all over the island maintaining very old buildings. Fort Mackinac is incredible with
original buildings dating back to the late 1700s and early 1800s. By 2:00 the island was a mob scene so we bailed and headed back on the 3:00 ferry.

Monday morning was time for the Labor Day Mackinac Bridge walk. Ann chose not to walk it so she got drop-off, pick-up duty. It was cloudy, cold (45 degrees and 12-15 mph wind) but fortunately the wind was out of the north and thus at my back.

Next weekend we'll be moving "down below" to Bay City before heading to the western side of the state the following weekend.
