Weekend get away day 1

Let me start off with the fact that I would be the first to say I could lose a little weight. Recently my insurance company has come up with this plan that is you weight X or more you have to join weight watchers or a walking club. Since I am already doing weight watchers and I am losing. I chose the walking club. In this club you receive a pedometer that you hook up to the computer to show how many steps you walk a day. You must average 5,000 a day for a quarter.




I missed one day the first week I had the pedometer, so I have been working hard to get caught up. This brings me to the weekend. My sisters and I drove up to Mackinac Island for the weekend. I love this place and there isn’t a more perfect place to get caught up on my steps. My goal was 10,000 every day we were there. Once there we got off the boat, checked into the Hotel, ate lunch and started walking.



We packed up our books and took off for the picnic table by Devils Kitchen. Once there we sat for a while reading and it was just too HOT. We thought it would be nice to go sit on the west bluff stairs, they were all nicely shaded. We sat there for a while when Al asked where do the stairs go she had never been up them before. So we headed up for her to see.



We spent some time admiring the spectacular view from Pontiac’s Lookout. Thinking we should start heading back we decided to be adventures and head back a different way then we came. Below is a map of where we walked the first day. Needless to say I hit 10,000 with out a problem.
