I guess I never truly checked but it certainly doesn't feel like 8 miles. Lol. Have been by there many times. Getting very close to my #1 campground.

6/5/2026 - "Fall In The Eastern E.P." (Episode 1912)
Parents have taken me & my brother to Cedarville about 35-miles southeast of Sault Ste Marie. In the early 70s we took a tour on a boat & we went into the locks, where it shifted water & lowered in the locks, then it would refill with water to go through the locks. AWESOME, ESPECIALLY WAY BACK THEN. I WAS 10 & REMEMBER IT LIKE IT WAS YESTERDAY. THANKS GREAT GETAWAYS FOR BRINGING BACK SOME AWSOME MEMORIES.
6/7/2026 - "Rifle River Recreation Area" (Episode 746)
Thanks, best video I've found yet. I wish you'd shown what campgrounds u were at. And the difference between Devoe, Ranch, and Spruce.
6/9/2026 - "It Won't Hurt Us To Go To Curtis" (Episode 1204)
Excellent to see this again. I grew up in Curtis fishing, snowmobiling, and having fun around the campfire. I’ve trucked more than a few times around America and Curtis will always be Home.

7/4/2026 - "A Visit To Big Bay" (Episode 2310)
Love this show - I could watch it all day (and have). Love the UP too!
7/6/2026 - Facebook Photo (Big Bay, Michigan - Episode 2310 "A Visit to Big Bay")
It was one of many "working towns" that Ford had constructed. There is also the small village and saws that Ford had built just 7 miles West of L’Anse. And then again just off of second sand beach, past L’Anse where he had a factory, smoke chimney about 200’ tall (I’m estimating and it still stands) and boarding houses just outside of L’Anse called Aura!
