    It’s not a sea it’s a very large lake, actually Mackinaw Island is surrounded by Lakes Huron and Michigan. Michigan has 5 fresh water Great Lakes that come together, Michigan, Huron, Superior, Erie and Ontario. Lots of awesome history with these lakes.

Jack has done such a fantastic job with the gardens. Thanks for taking us along. BONUS ... how fun was it to see Laura and her hubby again . I bet it was also relaxing, once you were able to sit down. I've always found, there's something about sleeping by water that really relaxes one's soul.

It was lovely to see you and Laura on stage together. I remember when Laura described how terrified she was to speak in front of a group of people, I think she is long past that now. Well , most of the time perhaps 🤔. You looked lovely in your frilly shouldered dress on the stairs with Jerry. Both yourself and Laura, as well as Jack, made me feel as though I were there too!
