Mackinac Island

We crossed back into the United States at Drummond Island, and then headed for Mackinac Island and then Lake Michigan to head south to Chicago.  Mackinac is a pretty special place.  No cars are allowed on the island, except for emergency services.  Your choices are to travel on foot, by bicycle or by horse.  We saw the UPS driver delivering packages by horse and cart.  Skipper was fascinated with the “big dogs” and told us on a regular basis that “I can take him!”.  Saw a few cool rock formations, both natural and man-made.  Did the touristy, ice cream and fudge thing. Watched a troop of girl scouts march in formation each evening to lower the flags. Nice to see the US flag at the top of the pole again.
