Feather On The River Flow: Short Vacation over

A long weekend in northern Michigan has ended but part of my mind is still up there. Sigh...

My dad and mom lived up there for a few months while he was working on natural gas pipeline project in '51 or '52, and I can remember my mom talkin' about how the black bears would often find a way to scatter their trash, regardless of what they did to thwart them. Was that where you were at???; August 24, 2008 at 4:05 AM

I've been to MI twice. The first time, we crossed over the Mackinac Bridge (scary and long) to get to our destination In the U.P.--a little point called Curtis. I learned to waterski there (also had my first and only leach experience--two or three of them on me when I got out of the water). But, man was it an amazingly beautiful place. My friend's family owned a cabin there on a lake (Manistique, I think). I have thought about that summer many times, and about the lake and the cabin and would love to visit there again.

Hope all is well with you and yours!; August 29, 2008 at 12:00 PM
