Meet Louis. I've decided to make him my pocket piece.

I took him on a trip this weekend to Mackinac Island, in Michigan. **Side note: If you've never heard of Mackinac Island, it's worth looking up. There are no cars allowed, so everyone gets around on foot, bike, or horse-drawn cart. It's a pretty neat place, once you get away from the main tourist area.

We climbed in the car and started driving to the ferry dock...IMG_20170923_154556318_HDR.jpg

...stopped to climb to the top of a lighthouse along the way...

...took the ferry to the island, then rented a bike and headed out.

We saw some of the local plant life...

Then we sat on the beach at British Landing and looked for interesting rocks... IMG_20170923_113153250.jpg

...and found a little pool for him to take a swim.

After biking all the way around the island, we got a treat.

We ended the day sitting by the water, looking at the Mackinac Bridge in the distance, enjoying our snack.IMG_20170923_143946891_HDR.jpg

What a fun day!

Sort:  

It's nice that Louis is square. It makes it easier for him to pose!

Great photos and very cool bar!

Looks like you & Lou have some miles in your future! Fun post

That does look like a fun day! That's a cool silver bar too.

col little bar! and looks like a nice day

Nice bar, never seen one before. Thanks for the share.

Thanks for the comments, all. I believe the bar is from the 1970's. It was a bit worn when I got it, but that's generally how I like them; with some history.
