Colonial Williamsburg is another family must do.
It's pretty cool falling back in time as well seeing the plantations.

Good stuff, Jeff!
Well, the trip is planned...
1. Bought tickets off StubHub the Pirates at Detroit and staying one night in a hotel right by the stadium.
2. Heading north the next day and shacking up in Saint Ignace which is just over the Mackinaw Bridge. We will chill there and enjoy the sights for that day. Got the hotel for 3 nights.
3. Leave the hotel on the 2nd day there and take the 2 hour drive up to Pictured Rocks and spend the day touring the area. I know we probably need more than one day, but we are limited on time.
4. The next day, take the jet boat over to Mackinaw Island and hang there for the day.
5. Head home so the wife can have a full day to recover on the couch before heading back to work.
I'd love to spend more time up there and take it all in, but we are limited this year. I will be taking the fishing poles along to try and wet a line since the hotel is right on the Huron.
Thanks for all the input guys. I took it all in. We were trying to plan a stop in Frankemuth, but doesn't look like it will fit in this time. Maybe on the way up if we are looking for a pit stop just so the wife can check out the Christmas shop.

Right! Those attacks were at ocean isle... That's our usual beach destination. F that!
Just saw footage of a pier in Sunset Beach (south Myrtle) of people throwing bait fish into the water and 6 footers were coming up to grab the fish in small groups.

Heading north today boys... thanks again for all your tips and recommendations about Meeeeshigan. Tonight we catch my Buccos in Detroit. We will be perched in RF taking it all in.
I'll try and update the action when we get to Saint Ignace on Wednesday. As the kids swim at the hotel, I'm hoping to latch onto some smallies or something. Not sure how the lakeshore fishing is, but it's better than sitting around a pool. I grabbed a 3 day license so I'm good to go.
