Traveling through Michigan - Part 1

We've been referring to our GPS as "Gypsy", which means 'a person who moves from place to place' and almost spells the same...GyPSy and since we hear a woman's voice we thought it was appropriate. The GPS is a really cool invention but it is subject to the programmer. I'm not sure what happened but as we traveled through Wisconsin, we programed the GPS for a totally different location than where it lead us to at the end of the day.

I think God has a sense of humour. He doesn't NEED a GPS but that doesn't mean He can't use one to get us to some really cool places. We finished driving through Wisconsin and after just arriving in Michigan found our way to a Sunday Lake Campground for the night. It was a beautiful lake and not many people in the campground. When it grew dark we saw various colors of city lights from across the lake reflected onto the lake, which was so still it looked like a mirror. It was breathtakingly beautiful and quiet.

We didn't have any wood to build a campfire but we needed to get to bed early anyway. After a nice steak and wine dinner we cleaned up the dishes and went to bed. I had forgotten how tiring it is to just drive all day even when the scenery is nice. Tomorrow we are headed for a sightseeing tour of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.
