I love Mackinac Island, Michigan. I have loved it since my parents first took me there as a little girl. Of course I have only ever been in the warmer months. I would love to spend a year on the island to experience all the seasons – someday is what I tell myself.
For years I thought the islanders were basically stuck on the island through the winter but a few years ago I learned when it gets cold enough the straits freeze and an ice bridge is formed, allowing people to get to back and forth to the mainland. Cool! I heard that it is already frozen over this year. Plus I found out there are regular flights to the island also.
Someday I will make over there to see the island in winter. I have heard that cross country skiing is great on the island and I would love to try it. I must get in shape first.
That is my winter dream, a new goal to achieve … well to add to the list: Get in shape and go skiing on Mackinac Island.
