One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Met my life time dream of travel to Europe. Have been to manly France, but also Germany, and Italy. I have also spent a lot of time in my life in the beautiful Canadian Wilderness just north of me in Michigan and back in 1968 ran a tourist lodge, Beaver Rock Lodge, on Lake Superior. This year, 2020, I took a two week cruse in the Caribbean Islands.

Could possibly help tour our beautiful Grand Traverse Area. I have a pass for the National Parks and could tour you through the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore
