As full fledged "fudgies" we had to stop by the many fudge shops on the island. We broke down and bought a few pieces and have been enjoying them each night after a homemade dinner.
Mackinac Island is famous for not having any motor vehicles (the only highway in the USA that has never had a car accident). We were riding our bikes to our condo and saw this. It is a horse drawn street sweeper. We are always amazed at the lack of horse dung on the trails and roads, so this explains how they clean it up so fast.
This is a view from the back of our condo. It overlooked the Straits of Mackinac which joins Lake Huron and Lake Michigan. We had some great sunsets!
Here Megan stands with roots in front of the Grand Hotel. By far the most well known and expensive place to stay on the island. It cost $12 just to stand on the porch! Needless to say we did not stay there or even go on the porch. We did walk around and enjoy the gardens from a distance.
The leaves are changing all over the island. It was so beautiful to ride on the trails that twist through and around the island. Despite it being fall we enjoyed sunny warm weather most of the trip (except at night when it dropped into the 40's, good thing we had a fireplace!).
