12 Sept. 2018 Saint Ignace, MI to Archbold, OH

We drove over the Mackinaw Bridge ($10 toll). It was a little nerve racking since the lanes are narrow and there was construction on the bridge. Fortunately there was little to no wind. The roads in the lower peninsula were very rough. We had one big scare when we came around one tight turn and there was a underpass that was marked as only being 13 feet, 7 inches. Our Wanderer is 13 feet 6.5 inches! Yikes!! It was too late to even hit the breaks hard! We slipped through with no damage except our pounding hearts. In Archbold, we stayed at the Sauder Heritage RV Park ($38 per night with Good Sam Discount). The primary reason for picking this park is that it is between St. Ignace and Canton, OH. The sites are level, gravel and grass, but very narrow. WiFi was strong and fast, water pressure was good. When we pulled in on Wednesday, the park was pretty empty but it filled up before the weekend.  Etta was let off leash and enjoyed the wide open space and ran and ran and played.  It was great to see her have a big time! Ohio is the 9th state since we left Texas.
