2022 Michigan family trip

    Every year, we usually take a trip with Lucas' parents and brother's family. We used to do a lot of nearby state parks, but we had talked about the Mackinac area for years and finally made it happen post-Covid! Since Mamaw and Papaw still had their RV at that time, we found a campground that had both RV hookups and cabins.  It was a beautiful campground, right on the shore of Lake Huron. The boys STILL talk about wanting to go back there! We had some lowkey days around the campground, and we did day trips to Canada and to Mackinac Island.

July 8-9 - drive to Mimi and Pa's house in Indiana then drive the rest of the way to Mackinaw Mill Creek campground
