Perched on top of the State of Michigan is Traverse City. We drove from Bloomington Indiana to upper Michigan for a couple of vacations.

We started our trip to Beaver Island Michigan in Traverse City. It is a stopping point, a way station on the way there. It is also a wonderful little town in Michigan.
My dad loved being outdoors. Over the course of my childhood, we spent many hours in Michigan. Dad attended and graduated from the University of Michigan. He was studying biology.
One of the stories I remember is of my parent’s pet Raccoon Robespierre, not named for the French revolutionary but the pirate.

The videos are awesome! Especially the second video.
i really enjoyed the second video!
Both videos were beautiful but the second one is the star! (pun intended)
great pun, and i agree it was the start!
The video is stunning. The view of the sunset is magical. I guess the water is pretty cold. I don’t like cold water. 😊
i love the videos so much fun!
I would love 55 degrees all the time! Nice videos.
the water was cold but the breeze was always cooL!
Sounds good to me! Cool would be good now.
we loved hanging out on the beaches of Lake Michigan!
I don’t like cold water … how many degrees Celsius?
it is around 14 c possibly 13 c
I would never swim in such water …. this is a real glacier ….. I swim in the sea when it is at least 25 degrees ….
it was very cold, but the air was warm so we had fun
I believe it was cold ….. you can’t put me in such cold water even if it’s very hot outside
i understand that – we were kids. I am not sure I would do that now!
Now I fully understand you, dear friend …… as a child I did such nonsense
i think pal that is something we all did as kids! time, gives us maturity
I totally agree with you ….. I wish you a nice weekend, dear friend
the same wish for you as well dear friend!
