Pure Michigan - Your Trip Begins

Lance and I will be flying up to Petoskey, Michigan for our yearly Family Reunion the last weekend in July. It will be Lance's first trip to Petoskey and I will be taking him to the most beautiful place on earth, Mackinac Island.



Anyone visiting Michigan needs to make sure and experience the following listed below.


The Cross in the Woods in Indian River, Michigan

As a small child, I remember going to mass and visiting this church when we would stay with my Grandfather in Petoskey, Michigan. Click on the picture and learn about this amazing and unique church.


Lake Michigan

Whether it's by Grand Haven or Petoskey, you must experience Lake Michigan. It's the most beautiful, fresh water lake you will ever see. Promise!


Petoskey's Historic Riverfront

Just next to downtown Petoskey is the historic riverfront "Petoskey City Marina" with the famous red clock. There's always clear blue skies, bright blue water and pure white caps.


The Traverse City Cherry Festival

The Cherry Festival is July 3rd - 10th, 2010. Be sure to try some wonderful Michigan cherries and check out the website for festival events.


Mackinac Island


Mackinac Island

There are no cars allowed on the island and they make killer Mackinac Fudge and Ice Cream.

So fun to see suggestions from a native! We are hoping to go longer next year, and maybe even bring my parents along, so I know that Mackinac Island will definitely be on the itinerary.
