MI Trip Day 1

We have been traveling for a week, but have not had a wifi connection so we have not been able to post the blog. We will try to catch up.

August 11

This was a travel day, not a fun day. We launched our trip to Michigan at 7:30 AM; we did it again at 7:40 AM. We forgot the holding bracket for the new GPS that was making its maiden voyage on this trip. A quick trip back to the house solved the problem. We met Mem and Larry at Zion’s Crossroads at 9:00 AM, as planned, and we were on our way moments later.

The trip was uneventful until a bear cub chose to walk across four lanes of traffic right in front of Mem and Larry. Traffic was able to stop and the cub made it safely to the tree line and disappeared.

Some four hundred miles later we arrive at the campground in Chillicothe, OH. Two back-in sites were reserved for us, but there was no one in the office when we arrived. Mem got a map and Larry found the sites. We settled in and had a relaxed dinner and evening.
