So... I'm in the U.P. Me, Grace, and her mom came up here on the 12th and are leaving tomorrow morning. We were in St. Ignace the first day then proceeded up to Houghton and Hancock and are right now in St. Ignace again. I've seen many things. Mackinac Island is not technically one of them. I can see the island from the hotel, but we haven't gotten to go onto the island. It's the Lilac Festival there and so tickets are $25/person. We saw the Pictured Rocks... they were pretty. Lots of Arboreal Tunnels, mines, historic locations, haunted lighthouses, dense forests, deer. We didn't get to see any bears or moose though. I wanted to see moose. Mom was a little distraught that I didn't get to see any moose, so she bought me a plushy moose. I named him Charlie. Charlie the Mystic Moose.
It is gorgeous up here, though. If I could live up here, I would, but only during the summer months.
But I will be home tomorrow. There's a part of me that's dreading it to the point where it's making me quite depressed because I know what I'm going home to. But, at the same time, I want to go home just to see my animals and sleep in my own bed again.
Grr...
Oh, and we haven't found the Lemon. I looked and looked and looked, but the Lemon just did not want to be found.
