Legs Inn


Continuing our trip #13,
we arrived at Legs Inn a little after 11am.
Found out it didn't open till 11:30.
So we walked around and took
some pics.
Legs Inn has a very unique history.
And supposedly some very good
Polish Food! And it was closing for the season
in a couple of weeks.
It must have good food because
there was quite a line of people
showing up! And there is virtually nothing
around here. I mean there were 2 other
buildings and a church. And some
scattered houses, so these were people like us
coming from elsewhere to eat here.
Click on the link to read about this interesting place!
It was started in the 1920's, and is build completely of
material found in the area.
Inside there are all kinds of carving in the walls,
ceiling, and support columns.
I tried to get some pics of the inside, but it was fairly
dark, and I didn't want to disturb everyone with my flash.
They opened promptly on time, and we
were soon seated out in the garden for lunch,
with an expansive view of the lake.
We both ordered a combo sampler.
It came with Hunter's Stew, 3 Pierogi,
and Polish Sausage. It was very tasty!
We both especially liked the Hunters Stew!
It's always fun to try new food!

After lunch, we drove on up to Wilderness State Park.

Up on the western tip of Lake Michigan.

Just to check it out for a possible future trip.

Then it was back to the campground, a nice fire,

and Chicken on the grill with a homemade pasta salad.

And the following morning, pack up, and back to Lansing.

tunnel of trees

Our first day took us on a drive around the bay,
past Harbor Springs, up the coast through the
Tunnel Of Trees . I've posted a few pics here.
It's a narrow winding road along the coastline.
It would be difficult to drive our motor home
on this road. It was barely wide enough for
2 cars to past each other.
But it was a beautiful day,
and a very nice drive.

The other reason for the drive
was to visit Wilderness State Park.
Up on the western tip of the Lower Peninsula. Always looking for
our next possible camping site!

And on the way there, we wanted to stop for lunch in a town called Cross Village. And have lunch at a place
called Legs Inn.

And more about that in my next post.
Now, it's off to work!
