Petoskey

We are now in Petoskey at a city RV park right on Lake Michigan. It is primarily a tourist town due to its beautiful Lake Michigan shoreline, rolling hills, golf, shopping and restaurants! There are many gorgeous, big, old homes along the lake - for San Antonians it is like King William meets Lake Michigan! My last visit to Petoskey was via an ambulance with a broken pelvis and the hospital was my hotel - don't want to relive those memories!

There is a great bike trail -The Wheelway - that runs from Charlevoix to Harbor Springs along the coastline. We rode into town this morning - had coffee at the "Toast & Roast" and then made our way home. Plan to ride the opposite way in the morning. I spent quite awhile sitting on the beach with my good book - can't get much more relaxing than that!

The area golf courses are wonderful but pricey. I'm not a $100 a round golfer so we played yesterday at a "lesser" course that was still very nice for their "fall deal" - 2 for $35 with a cart.
