Sabbatical 2015 – Around the Great Lakes

Day Three: Marquette, Michigan

I didn’t make it out to Sleeping Bear again, but I’m okay with that. The drive from Traverse City to Marquette was very nice. I stopped in Mackinaw City, just before the bridge, for lunch.

Marquette is a sleepy college town, and very beautiful this time of year. There were three breweries, as well – two of which have only been open a few years.

  • Miles traveled: 266.8
  • Time in car: 5:05
  • States: Michigan
  • Exercise: ran 3.15 miles at 8:44/mile; 10,718 steps

Beer list at Ore Dock. Their gluten-free beer was surprisingly good.
