Wednesday, August 8, 2018 - Lake Gogebic State Park, Marenisco, MI, 219.7 Miles, 995.8 Miles for the Trip
Another non interstate drive, mostly on US 2 and MI 69. For some reason, although we were only going a few miles an hour faster than yesterday, my mileage dropped quite a bit to 12.4 MPG. Overall for the trip is 13 MPG, so I can't complain. We hit Central Time, and pulled into Lake Gogebic State Park around 3:30. No reservations, but they found us two next door sites for 2 nights - Sites 81 & 83. I'm in 83, a fairly level side to side that could have been a pull through since no one was in the site behind it, but I backed in, getting some practice for this trip. The site isn't level enough to leave the trailer hooked up, but that gives us an excise to go somewhere tomorrow.
There was an OK sunset over the lake last night, so I included a start & finish image. Other than that, all I have are the site photos.
