Nice trip again this year David. Your documentation of the Niagara
Escarpment took me back as did the rest of your trip. Before becoming a
Californian I was born in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada and lived from 8 until
college in MI. Throughout my life my grandparents lived on the North shore
of Lake Winnebago just down from High-Cliff state park so we basically had
both ends of the thing covered. My parents used to leave us with the
grandparents while they'd take a couple of days for themselves in Door
County. I've been to the grass-roofed restaurant a few times but not in
many years. Growing up we'd take the S.S. Badger (and pre-1990 occasionally
something else) from Ludington to Manitowoc when travelling so WI. My
parents have a place in Manistee now just North of Ludington. We once took
a family vacation to Manitoulin Island and we've spent some time with
friends on Washington Island on the Wisconsin end. It's all wonderful and
I'm a little bitter it's such a long way away now as now that I'm a pilot
and aircraft owner so much is so easily in reach in that area if you aren't
starting from California:) Ah well, I won't complain too much as our
weather is good and there's lots to see out here too. We'll be heading to
Jackson, WY for Columbus Day weekend in early October and that's pretty cool
too. Your photos and comments sure stirred up a lot of good memories though
and I'm so glad you got to share it with your family and then with us.
Best,
Jamey
