This week I took a road trip for work to Mackinaw City. The drive up started out dreary and rainy, but by afternoon we had beautiful weather to enjoy.
Mackinaw City has a great little shopping district with all sorts of shops to browse thru for summer tourists. I took some time before heading home to do a little browsing myself. I really didn’t buy a whole lot except some fresh cherries for me to snack on for my drive home.
I of course had to stop at Michilimackinac State Park to take a few photos of the Mackinac Bridge and lighthouse.
I love our great state of Michigan! I love our small beach towns along the Great Lakes. I love the feel and beauty of the lakes! The scenery is amazingly beautiful and there is so much to see and do!
Another stop I made was Sea Shell City. I had been by the shop many times on my way to the Upper Peninsula, but had never stopped there before. My curiosity got the best of me this time.
It was a very cute nautical, beachy inspired shop. Lots & lots to look at.
