I haven't been to Mackinac Island in a really long time. And I've never been there in the winter. On Thursday Jesse and I met Joel and Amanda in St. Ignace to take the ferry to the island. We stayed with Amanda's family at their "cottage". It's really a beautiful 3 bedroom house. Jesse and I had the pleasure of sleeping in the 4th bedroom which is really a big closet. Nice!!
We got to do lots of fun things, such as riding in a cab with a driver named George who was super crabby. We actually got to ride with him twice. The second time Jesse and I sat up front with him and watched the horses shit all along the way.
The weather was totally crazy. The first day we were there it rained. The second day it was sunny and warm so all the snow melted. Then that night it was freezing cold so all the stuff that melted froze and it was slippery and crunchy snow.
We stopped at the world's largest crucifix on the way home. It wasn't at all like I had imagined it would be but it was still interesting. There was a mass going on while we were there so we didn't get to do anything fun. When I get the photos developed I'll be sure to post some.
Then we stopped at the Big Buck Brewery for dinner and watched part of the Rose Bowl. I had never been to Big Buck either so it was a very exciting trip home.
I'm exhausted and very boring today. So I'll shut up and promise to not write again until I have something good to write.
Peace out.

How did Jesse handle being around all those dead animals at BBB? I've never been there but I've heard there are a lot of stuff animals. Do they even have a vegetarian menu?
