Sorry for the delay in posts--a last-minute addition to our travel schedule took me to San Francisco for the weekend!! More on that later...first, here is the continuation of our Michigan trip.
Day 8 (July 7th) we spent the morning on the island, and made our way back to our kiddos and my family in Alpena:
In the morning we took one last walk and toured the Hotel's stables and carriage collection, and the Governor's Mansion. |
The Governor's Mansion was very beautiful. I love this porch! I would spend all day out here. |
Grand Hotel and Mackinac Bridge, from Governor's Mansion. |
One last stop at the fudge shop. :o) |
All aboard! |
Bye, Grand Hotel :o( (The smaller white building on the very right is the Governor's Mansion.) |
Bye, Mackinac Island :o( |
On the way home (2 hour drive) we stopped at this FANTASTIC family-owned burger shack. Really, best burger ever!!! (Yeck's on US 23) |
Our instructor, getting the supplies ready. Notice the beer and munchies. |
A few of the students and half-completed work. At this point, we didn't know what the painting was going to be. We were just supposed to follow Justin's directions. |
Wine break!! (and munchies and beer) |
The finished products--it's the Blair Street Pier! This is the pier at the end of my parent's street (just 2 blocks down). So cool to create something meaningful! |
