  • This was a fun flight as Jaime and I fly the older kids up to Mackinac Island, Michigan for some fun at a unique place. The only way to the island is by plane or a ferry and planes are the only motorized vehicles allowed on the island. We took a horse buggy from the airport to town and rented bikes to tour around. Hope ya'll enjoy. :)

      Hey Kevin, I was raised in Michigan, living in Texas for the past 35 years, I've been to Mackinac Island several times, the last time was about 15 years ago, it looks like they added an addition onto the Grand Hotel since I was there last. I've always loved visiting Mackinac Island. You need to make another trip to Mackinac Island during the sailboat race from Chicago to Mackinac held each year usually in July, it would be magnificent to fly over the island as the sailboats are crossing the finish line, I've been onshore at Mackinac Island for the finish of a few races, the view form the shore is nothing less than spectacular, I can only imagine what it would look like in the air. Unfortunately this year's race was canceled.

    Kevin, that was a great trip. Many years ago I flew into the island with a friend in his Bonanza. He lived in Michigan and recommended it very highly. Was a trip to remember. No motorized vehicles except for the excavating ones working on the island. The kids must realize how fortunate they are to have opportunities that most do not have.

    I've been waiting for this trip to post! My wife and I have been to Mackinac Island so many times, and it never gets old. We often like to take a break from biking at the east end of runway 26 and watch the planes landing low overhead. Looked like there were a few people there when you were on final. 🙂 It was so cool seeing you guys enjoy some of our favorite spots! The only weird thing was how few people were there. Usually it's crawling with people. Great video!

    Kevin, Welcome to my home state. Although I live on completely the other side of the Upper Peninsula. Looks like a great trip and glad to see you were able to take some young passages along. Good choice not running up the middle of Lake Michigan. I have jumped over from the Central UP to Gaylord a few times in the summer but that is a much shorter distance and I flew from Island to Island so I never had too long of a glide to one if needed. I sure do miss the flying and the trips made possible by having the ability to get somewhere in half the time or better. The Ironwood, MI to Gaylord, MI trip was cut from 6 to 7 hours of driving to a 2 hour flight. Much more convenient. Those were work trips and I was able to make the trip and still be home at night to sleep in my own bed. Great job on the videos. Keep up the great work and have a great weekend.
