Wow, thank you!
The water is so pretty there. Will you was in my dream this morning right before I woke up. It was a good one. You 2 stay safe and have fun. Love your videos.😎🤠🦋
Good morning!
I used to live in Michigan also. Used to go to a campgrounds right there in Paradise. They say waves crest the bank and rolled all the way to road the night the Fitz went down.
My Dad and I visited Whitefish Point years ago. God bless the brave men on the Edmund Fitzgerald.
I loved this video so much!!!!!
The shipwreck museum and the lighthouse were so interesting! How I’d love to visit there!
Also that bridge!!!
Wow, so much in this video I loved. Thank you so much for sharing your lives and taking me places I might never get to see for myself.
Great job!!!
We stood exactly where Will and Dawn stood overlooking the Mackinac bridge during winter. Blue Ice phenomenon.
The Upper Palincala is beautiful this time of year.
Awesome video
Choking up, both for the 29 souls lost on the Edmund Fitzgerald and for the recent loss of the Canadian Icon, Gordon Lightfoot. God bless.
The church bell chimed till it rang 29 times, for each man on the Edmund Fitzgerald...
@@marshalljimduncan they rang it 30 times after the Troubador died, added one for Gordo. That certainly made me cry.
Good video!
Michigan summers are still pretty hot an humid
Great history, neat lighthouse. Thanks for sharing.
If you are in St. Ignace stop at Clyde’s Drive in to get a Hamburger meal! There burgers are huge and Delicious! It’s off US 2
Wonderful video! Thank you!
The Shipwreck museum is kind of a tear jerker. I remember crying during the movie portion. Thank you for bringing this to us. Michigan is so beautiful!! Lived there 53 years. Best place on earth!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice video
This area is so beautiful! I'm learning so much about Michigan, I live in Alabama so it's all new to me. I really like your videos, the hotels, the scenery, everything! Thanks so much for your excellent videos! Love you guys!
Awesome! Thank you!
Super nice there me an the wife went last summer when we went to tequamanan fall where i proposed, the ship wreck museum in Munising has the ship wreck tours with glass bottom boat, be sure to get a pastie while here
Awesome! Dawn I feel your pain on those steps,lol.
We are in the u.p right now
I remember Gordon Lightfoot’s (rest in peace) song about the Edmund Fitzgerald , when it came out on his album back in the 70’s. Great song , yet so sad.
Beautiful scenery and cool seeing the black bears off the side of the road.
Loving your road-trip.
Can’t wait for the next vlog
What a unique experience sledgehammered that like button sharing out full watch
it apparently a thing, Adam was just on a high bridge over a gorge and folks threw coins over onto the rock below, I enjoy hearing Dawn laugh, I know she's enjoying herself, thanks for sharing your vacation, I enjoyed the museum and lighthouse visit
I remember climbing all those steps as a young child. Loved this place!
Another great video! Thank you for sharing this with us! Can not wait for the next one! Continued safe travels and beautiful weather!
Just love watching your videos. The history of all the places you visit. We went to Myrtle Beach 2 weeks ago and visit some of places you talked about. We had a great time..thank you...
Glad you like them!
I love this video, It brings back so many memories. Thank you Will and Dawn, Love you guys
Thank 😊 you
Fun fact. The upper peninsula was granted to Michigan by congress after the Toledo War, the war between Ohio and Michigan for the now Toledo "Ohio" region. My City of Toledo ohio, glass city, Holy Toledo was almost a part of Michigan. 😊 good day 🫡
Thank 😊 you for sharing 😊
Thanks for sharing. I may never get up to this area of our great country but through your videos I can visit. Beautiful scenery. God bless.
wow so cool light house i rember that song ty for video yall
Found my self looking up the story of EF. Thanks for this great review..
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for taking the hike up, Castle Rock. The view was spectacular. This was the best part of the video
Beautiful country!
My husband and I walked the Labor Day Bridge walk a few years ago and they give you a certificate at the end of your walk. That was back when you walked the entire way across. Now they changed it to walk half way, turn around and go back. It took the fun out of it for me.
I have thoroughly enjoyed your visit to Michigan and hopefully will get to visit one day myself. You can tell that you all are so much in love with each other. You are so blessed to have one another.
I love watching you guys go to all the places we went to just two years ago. I ran into you two at Passholder's Day at Dollywood and was telling you that my family is all from the UP. My last name is Lightfoot, so Gordon's song about the Fitz is truly moving. Can't wait for the next episode in Pure Michigan!!
So beautiful
This part of Michigan is beautiful. A far cry from the blighted Detroit. Love Dawn's hat at the end of this vlog.
We never made it to the Point
Fantastic Dawn and Will. Thanks for recording your adventures here in Michigan.
Hope everyone is having a blessed day
This video moved my soul!! It was just wonderful!! Great job!
Wow, thank you!
Enjoying your videos, you have been to a lot of cool places. Keep up the great
work. Thanks for sharing
Thanks, will do!
Today learning about Edmund Fitzgerald ship wreck was the first time i heard about it. When it happened our family did not own Tv . I was a teenager. So sad. I thought the museum was a great tribute and presented artifacts and the story well. Thanks for sharing!
Wowwy Wow!! So much history!! I love it!! Thanks so much guys!! Have fun!! Love your videos as always!!!😀🌼😀
Will and Dawn, your videos are never long and boring. I get to see parts of the U.S. I have never been able to visit, and your videos are VERY much appreciated.
Wow, thank you!
Michigan’s such a beautiful state it’s just a little too cold for my blood in the winter time. Good job covering it Will and Dawn.
What a great tour of UP for those of us who would never get there. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it
Love seeing another lighthouse ❤ Whitefish Point, very neat. Traveled through there in the 90s once. Thanks for including us on the trip wayyyyy up north UP.
Glad you enjoyed it
CASTLE ROCK. The Best!
❤ that area! I’m from Michigan and I have been there so many times but love it every time!❤
Beautiful. Enjoyed it so much. We were up there in 1965 .Went up to Lake of the Clouds .Porcupine mountains. Highest point of the U .P .
Sounds great!
Your road trips are fascinating!!! I’ve never been to Michigan, you’ve made me want to go it’s beautiful
This is my stomping grounds guys. I"m a YOOPER proud and true. So I thought I seen you in Esky but not sure. Yes I get teased by my fam who live in the city but I travel as much of you guys (well almost) and at the end of the day I come home and feel safe plus in the winter I have a warm fireplace, a sauna and make the most of it. Thank you both for doing our little peace of heaven in a wonderful, respectful way, it means a lot to us yoopers up here. Be safe, always remember, we are not guaranteed a tmr and it is those here now who need us most cause those in heaven are well off. Dawn I share your name (middle name) was named after Delta Dawn and Jennifer Juniper by the donovans. Love you guys x
Thank 😊 you for sharing
@@yankeeinthesouth your very welcome
Awesome video!! This may be a bucket list . Can’t wait to see part two .
Please tell people about hills in Dollywood . Not a place for older people without elect. Scooter
Loved the video. I didn’t know so much history and soo beautiful. Would luv to go there. Dawn and will you get to go to lots of neat places. Have fun wherever you go😊😊😊
That shipwreck museum was fascinating! I’d love to go see it!
Great video😊
Blessings and safe travels🙏
Loving these Michigan videos! I am in Kenosha but have not been to upper Michigan. Love the history of the Great Lakes and the ships. Going to look into when the Mackinaw bridge was built. I so want to go to the Grand Hotel!
I know you two are having a fun time. Just watching is exciting. Couldn't imagine being there. God has blessed this channel and look forward to the future videos to come. ❤
Thank you so much!
Will and dawn i like seeing history and places from your home state. Glad that you have some cool weather down here we are having heat advisory. Have fun you guys!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you will and Dawn. I love these videos. God bless
Glad you like them!
Beautiful place!
Great video and thankyou for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Love the UP. We sure did enjoy our visit to Whitefish Point. The shipwreck numbers in that area is so high. It is too bad you didn't get to tour Pictured Rocks. Glad you are going to Sault Sainte Marie. We really enjoyed the locks, very interesting to witness.
You said it so well! Summers in Michigan are great but you pay for it- those winters are long and lots of snow. I grew up in Cedar on leelanau peninsula. Good times.
So true!
There was a bridge here in Cincinnati Ohio that I as a small child use to call it the singing bridge when we crossed it.
Interesting vlog.....can't wait to see tomorrows. 👍
Hope you enjoyed it!
Love love ❤❤❤❤
Interesting video, now I’m going to listen to the song again
Thanks so much for this one. It was really interesting to me. I learned a lot about the Edmond Fitzgerald. Always likes that song. Looking forward to part two of this video 😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
I’ve been to Castle Rock many times. It is a great stop. The owners are super nice folks. I enjoyed your video of the ship wreck museum.
Thank 😊 you
Very interesting. Thanks for taking us along.
Glad you enjoyed it
Take 123 From Tahquamenon Falls West to CR 500 then CR 412 & go to Crisp Point Lighthouse. The drive is as much an adventure as the destination. Just finished up a 2 week trip in that area of Two Hearted River!
That's awesome 👌
I have tons of those stones when I was a kid we would go up there and I'd try to swim omg it was so cold but alot of fun .
Yep, the skeeters are treacherous! 😊...beautiful area and very interesting! TY. 😊..love your hat Dawn
Thanks for watching!
Years ago we would go to Paradise for week to go snowmobiling from central Indiana. There was a bar that the snow so deep you could ride a snowmobile on the roof. When you would use the phone booth you had to step down to get in because the snow was so deep.
Thank 😊 you for sharing
Once again, loved the video. Thanks for sharing!😊 Until next time, cheers!😉
Thank you! Cheers!
i Love long videos i wouldn't care if it was 2 hours long i would wach it all because i Love you guys you two are the best 💓
Thank 😊 you so much 😊
Will and Dawn your doing a great job love your channel.

You both should go to split rock light house in Northern MN in November when they have the Edmond Fitzgerald ship wreck anniversary its very somber but a great ceremony I think you might enjoy and look at the lighthouse tour .
love the UP so beautiful!
Dawn and Will Your sights are a pretty fascinating Be safe and in your travels. Hug's from VA 🙏💜❤️
How long did it take you'll to get from Mackinac Island to Michigan upper peninsula to the museum 🤔 ?? The museum is amazing and full of historic artifacts. I didn't know it even existed until now 😳
It's a twenty minute ferry ride
That was to high for me at that road side attraction Castle Rock, but it was beautiful ❤️
I would had bought some pot holders, they make great gifts and keepers.. I rarely see them anymore.
It's really pretty up there. We'll have to add it to our list
Beautiful Area.
Awesome video!! Dawn, be careful and don't get too much sun!❤❤❤
Visit Duluth mn if you ever get the chance and stay in canal Park. The inn on Lake superior is the best spot to stay with access to the Lakewalk and centralized attractions food and shopping you'll love it there 😊
