We’d driven for about three hours north by the time we arrived at our destination. Throughout that time, we’d listen to music, chatted casually, and simply enjoyed the naturesque view that had constantly surrounded us. We weren’t even at the farthest point in the northern region of the Lower Peninsula, which would’ve been where Mackinaw City was by the bridge. Though, I remembered going up north several times with Dad and enjoying the time we’d spent there, especially farther up in the UP. Because of the average temperature there, the lakes weren’t really swimmable.
