A timeless view of Mackinac Island’s Grand Hotel, its sweeping white façade and iconic 660‑foot porch evoke 19th‑century elegance.

Vintage charm and majestic architecture make this landmark a symbol of classic American hospitality.

This doesn't sound good -- a Florida private equity firm now owns most of the passenger ferries to Mackinac Island.
Some pics of my sister @Julie_NA to welcome her to Mastodon! We just finished a lovely family vacation going on a loop around #LakeHuron, with a stop on #MackinacIsland. I’ve been wanting to go there for ages but ironically it is very hard to get to without a car. They have the largest fleet of working draft horses in the world. #CarFree #Horses
Michigan journalist Susan Demas, one of the very few good journalists left in Michigan, covers the annual fiasco known as the Mackinac Policy Conference @ https://michiganadvance.com/2024/06/02/at-the-mackinac-policy-conference-the-empire-strikes-back-in-seersucker-suits/
The cadence of what-purported-leader-says (parenthetically, why that is BS) is masterful.

There don’t seem to be any potholes. I wonder how much the #CarFree #MackinacIsland saves on roadwork.

Grand Hotel - Mackinac Island
The beautiful and historic Grand Hotel sits on a hill on Mackinac Island on Lake Huron overlooking the Straits Of Mackinaw in Northern Michigan.
The hotel was built in the later part of the 19th century and markets itself as having the worlds longest porch at 660 ft. in length.

Uhm... #introduction
Nothing really to say about me as a person, I have crippling #anxiety & so no life/accomplishments to speak of. Here are some of my interests, I'm an expert on none.

2026 update: I post political stuff & am kind of inconsistent with warnings/tags. I see such things bother some users, but I'm tired of policing everything I say in my own space (plus bots auto-repost me when I use political tags), so, just a heads-up you may want to mute me.
I welcome followers & try to reciprocate, but if you seem like a bot, you're a charity account (I'm on gov't support myself, sorry), or I can't figure out why you followed me, or if you post "Genocide Joe/Killer Kamala/Both sides are equally bad" content, I will almost certainly not follow back. Please just avoid me.
Apologies if I'm doing anything wrong, I mean no offense.
I know I'm a day late for a #ThursdayThoreau post, but time is an illusion anyway:

This is a reflection on my trip to my family cottage in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, where I walked with #Thoreau on Mackinac Island as the redstart sang.

Going through old pictures and found these from our family trip to Mackinac Island. They were taken from the wooden steps that lead up to arch rock where I stopped on a bench to enjoy the woods and scenery. #MackinacIsland #sailboats #LakeHuron
