Yesterday we took a trip to see the Mackinac Bridge, took a picnic lunch, and saw the Old Mackinac Point Lighthouse. During lunch, we bombarded by the pesky seagulls, diving and sneaking up from behind us for any food! I don't recall San Francisco seagulls as confrontational but "da northeast seagulls" are another breed!

We ventured off I 75 for several miles at Gaylord to visit the Bottle Cap Museum on Sparr Road. We arrived at the Sparr Mall, the storekeeper state, “The collection was sold and is on display in Grayling, MI”. Well, go figure; we had just driven from Grayling without knowing the current location of the Bottle Cap Museum. Here’s the info about the Bottle Cap Museum, it’s on our list of places to go while we’re in Michigan.

“The Bottle-Cap Museum is the largest private collection of Coca-Cola related items in Northern Michigan. Over 10,000 pieces of memorabilia make up the museum, housed in an authentic classic 50's diner, Dawson and Stevens Classic 50's Diner located in downtown Grayling. Open Monday through Thursday from 7am to 7pm, Friday & Saturday 7am to 8pm, Sunday 7am to 6pm, with a full breakfast menu and soups, deli sandwiches and world renowned hamburgers, fries and shakes along will a working 1950's soda fountain.” http://www.michigan.org/property/detail.aspx?p=B12130
