Today I travelled to Cadillac for several reasons. Two of those were to take short hikes that I'll share over the next few days. I'm going to feature them in my next "Get Off the Couch" newspaper column.
Nothing says "Cadillac" better than Lake Mitchell.
The primary reason for the trip was that I had the pleasure of being interviewed by Rose Odette. She has a highly successful videocast, and she invited me to be one of her guests. I'll share the link when it's edited. She also writes motivational books.
On the way home I drove part of the way on the road named Mackinaw Trail. This is actually Old US-131, and more or less parallels the current expressway. Some day I'd like to drive the whole distance on it from Reed City to Petoskey, which is the portion that carries the name Mackinaw Trail. It's nothing too special, but I'm just an historic transportation junkie.
The colors along the roads are starting to brighten.
And although I didn't want to take too long to get home (I was hungry!), you know I couldn't pass up a few dirt roads. This is 4-Mile Rd in Lake County, just where it changes from 16-Mile in Osceola County.
The interview with Rose covers a lot of ground! We talked about the trail and hiking and books. The link below is to the only similar interview I've done which was in 2019 (before the second hike).
What a great day! I managed to get in a little bit of editing before I had to head north.

You have another great day.
That last one looks like a road I would enjoy traveling down
rainfield- I try to make every day have something great, but yes, this one had some really great parts!
Ann- Oh! We have that in common too
Lulu: "That dirt road looks like just the kind of place where our Mama and Dada used to like to ride their mountain bikes back East!"
Lulu- Your Dada and Mama know how to live a good life
