Hufnagels on the Move: TRIP TO THE UP OF MICHIGAN

It has been 10 days since we left Ozarks RV Resort on Table Rock Lake. Our first day we took in our 33rd President, Harry S. Truman's Museum in Independence, MO.

The weekend we spent with family in De Soto, WI. Mike's cousin Vance Baker has 70 acres of Prairie in the area. We have been hearing about his place for years but this was the first opportunity for us to actually visit. We had a great time! Aunt Jane Baker, Ken and Marilyn Hufnagel, and Vance's son Jason, wife Kim and children Colin and Julia were there as well. We spent time catching up on family and of course eating, watching his turkeys and chickens, along with a walk or two in the prairie flowers. We stayed at Blackhawk Park a campground right along the Mississippi River. One morning we took a quiet walk beside the river.

Next Stop ~ Duluth, MN
We parked at the Lakehead Boat Basin, Waterfront RV Parking. We looked out our windshield (picture window) to see the St. Louis Bay which feeds into Lake Superior. We could see the Aerial Lift Bridge and here the freighters going through the Canal. Pretty Awesome bridge. We took in some local sights ~ Gooseberry Falls and the Split Rock Lighthouse, day two the Skyline Parkway a Scenic Byway above the city and a tour of the freighter William A. Irving.

Today we drove east to Ontonagan, MI. We are now in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. We are parked in the River Road RV Park. This is a small park of 20 grass sites, with full hook-ups (for non-RVers thats electric, water and sewer), wide open sites and our site #13 has plenty of elbow room with a tree for shade. The reason we are here is to see the Porcupine Mtns. Tomorrow we will pack a lunch and take off for waterfalls, hikes, and maybe see a beach or two on Super Lake Superior.
