I had a motorhome many years ago. Got about 6 miles to the gallon -- six and a half with a good tail wind. Sold it during Jimmy Carter's gas crunch. By comparison, my Blazer (the small S-10 type) gets between 12 and 14. So much for automotive disdain.
When Caroline and I were up at Shawano for their festival there a few years ago, we came back by way of the UP. We learned at that time that folks above the Mackinac Bridge are known as Yoopers, and those who live below the bridge are now called "trolls." (Yuk-yuk)
Caroline, who grew up at the southern end of Lake Michigan, found it disorienting to see a sunset from the other end of the lake with the sun going down over her right (wrong) shoulder!
