While we were here for three days due to weather, we only have one picture! We did go to the Great Lakes Maritime Heritage Center which has a lot of exhibits about the Great Lakes and about the many shipwrecks around the area. The Great Lakes are the largest freshwater system in the world and hold more than 20% of the world’s freshwater. There are about 6,000 ships that were lost on the Great Lakes and about 1,500 of them are in Michigan waters.
We enjoyed meeting and spending time with Misty’s mother, Susie, who flew in to Alpena to travel with Misty and Darrel for a week.
