Kalamazoo, MI to Gulf Shores, AL
For many years, I've always headed east to I-69, south to I-65 at Indianapolis and on to Alabama. Google Maps/Waze want to route me west towards Chicago, I-65 south to US41/I63/I-69 (at Evansville), to I-24 to Nashville and I-65 to Ala. Time-wise it's about the same and distance is slightly shorter (not much). Has anyone taken this route? If so, how are the roads, especially 41/63? Taking a new route after 25 years on the old one might be interesting. Driving a class A with toad. Thanks for any input.2.1KViews0likes8CommentsRe: Update on Michigan State Parks

Yes, during cold weather, Platte River campground is the right choice, even though you have to drive to Lake Michigan and all of the other parts of SBNL. However, in nice weather, DH Day is our all-time favorite campground. Right on Lake Michigan, beautiful campsites. Close to most of the action--Glen Haven, Coast Guard Station, Glen Arbor, etc.--all a short bike ride away on the brand-new bike path that runs through the park. Starting in January, reservations will be possible, which may or may not be a good thing.614Views0likes0CommentsLake Huron in September
We are planning a trip along the Canadian side of Lake Huron in early September (after our Labor Day), stopping in some of the provincial parks along the way. Will we be able to find sites that will fit our rig (35' motor home with toad) and will we need reservations? Thanks for any input.1.8KViews0likes8Comments
