South to Saginaw, MI

The skies were overcast as we headed south. After we crossed the Mackinac Bridge, we followed Route 23 along Lake Huron.

Cheboygan Lighthouse

Forty Mile Point Light

Sturgeon Point Light

Tawas Point Lighthouse


On the way we stopped in Harrisville, MI to follow a trail of quilt barns.




Part way through our quest, we had to make way for ducklings.

Before we stopped for the night in Saginaw, MI we stopped just north in Bay City to take advantage of the Bay City Loop (Bay County Riverwalk/Railtrail System). We only did the Riverwalk portion of the trail. What our ride lacked in distance, it more than made up with uniqueness and interest. It went along the Saginaw River and included boardwalks out into the river and access to an island.



Lots of birds.
