In honor of the 52nd Annual Bridge Walk* today, we perambulated to Piedmont Park and made enough circuits and detours to approximate (exceed, actually) the five miles it takes to cross the Mackinac Bridge.
* Note: playing tag (?) while on the Bridge Walk is not permitted. We didn’t play tag either.

The GG and some of his family and friends did walk the bridge. We drove over it between about 12:30 and 1:00 PM. It was a zoo. He had to wait on the south end at least 2 hours before he could catch a bus to the other side.
They had a great time (I’ve never done it and didn’t get to yesterday due to family commitments). I will do it one of these days but will want to think through the logistics of timing and vee-hickle placement pretty carefully.
Rest of trip was relatively calm for Labor Day, only a few slow-downs and no stand-stills, not even on the bridge. We did take the Lansing route though.
