Thank you Ann, you certainly confirm my belief that there is something
special about the island in the Summer. They do say it is a rough place
to be in the Winter. I would love to return if only for a day trip. If I
add a few photos to the lot I will let you know. It is nice we are able
to share photos with a large audience via the internet.

Subject: Re: Geso Mackinac Island Trip Message-ID:
Don - Really enjoyed these... Mackinac
Island is a special place to me , mainly from my childhood, but I did
get back there when we were driving back from Alaska in OCtober, 1989.
We took the ferry and only stayed on the island two hours... Richard
wasnt up to much of a hike. I only got a very few shots on slide film
then... and not sure now which trip it was :-( - but before digital
days. Don't have any that I know were taken there in the 40's by my
mother or father. Loved the Ester Williams movie with Van Johnson and
Laurence Melchior (sp?) that was made on the island. That wooded path is
particularly appealing, several of the bridge shots are very strong. The
bridge wasn't there in the 40's. And in '89 I'm sure I lobbied for the
ferry.. but we may not have been able to drive there anyway unless we
had reservations to stay on the island. All this is a long way of saying
I'm grateful for your photos of the place. ann On 8/1/2014 14:23, Don
