Day fifty-seven and we headed out of Kalkaska to Sault Ste. Marie. We got a slow start because our leveling jacks were being a pain, but we eventually got on the road. The farther north we headed, the windier it got! As we got close to St. Ignace, I said something about the Mackinac Bridge coming up, and Jim’s eyes almost popped out of his head! “We’re going over that TODAY?!” he said. Ha Ha!! It was VERY windy, but we figured they would close it if it was unsafe, so we pushed on. It was open, but they had signs up saying RV’s and trailers could only go 20 mph. Since they only had one lane open, that meant that everyone was going 20 mph! It was a S-L-O-W ride, but really awesome!
We are staying at the Soo Locks Campground, and it is right on the water, so we can sit in our coach and watch the ships going down the river. Nothing going on the first night, though, as we are just hunkering down and waiting for the winds to die down!
