Wish Me Luck: SUCCESS!!!
Although it's our last free weekend until mid-August, I'm going to try to convince John-Patrick to agree to an impromptu road trip this weekend.
I want to go to St. Ignace / Mackinac Island area.
- We can get a car for $16/day
- We can stay for free at my family's cabin (which my dad already booked for us in hopes John-Patrick will say yes) in Wellston, MI.
- Castle Rock, a formative part of my childhood (we camped there every summer for years)
- A kitchy Indian Villiage, for research of course, so I can refresh my How We Cartoonify and Then Exploit American Indians presentation in my Race & Ethnicity class. Plus, again, rubber tomahawks were another formative part of my childhood.
- I think we would also have to do the Mystery Spot...
- ...and the Weird Michigan Wax Museum....
- ...and the Man Killer Clam.
- Plus, we always do Friday night pizza. Why not do it tomorrow at The Deerhorn? (They have some of the best pizza on the PLANET.)
- And on our way up tomorrow, we could stop and have lunch in Grand Rapids, and pick out his tux, whereas we weren't sure when we'd be able to get there otherwise.
Seriously, how could he say no?????
