8/2-7 - Kampvilla, Manistee

Great Park!  We camped in an open field, but it was level (!) and the sites were offset and landscaped beautifully.  Dottie had a great time here.

We walked along the riverwalk, went to the Lake Bluff Bird Sanctuary and Orchard Beach.

We spent a lot of time at the Dodge dealer.

Had dinner with new friends, the Thompsons, and toured Bear Lake, MI with them.



Got up early to take the car ferry from Luddington, MI across Lake Michigan to Manitowoc, WI.  It was weird to see our RV backed up into the bowels of a ship with a "US Highway 10" sign on the back of it!  The 4 hour ferry ride saved us 8 hours (409 miles) on the northern route and 10 hours (1039 miles) on the southern route through Chicago.  YAY!

On to Green Bay...
