Driving Michigan’s Tunnel of Trees on the 4th of July felt like slipping into a green tunnel where Lake Michigan peeks through the leaves. I explored the historic Saint Ignatius Church and its old Odawa graves, stood at the foot of the Old Mackinac Point Lighthouse, and caught the Mackinac Bridge glowing at dusk. I wrapped up the day with a simple hot dog in town — a small tribute to family and summer traditions.
