Hubby's mom lives in Grand Rapids and I had hoped that this year I'd be able to go to the AQS show in Grand Rapids, but it was cancelled (again) due to Covid. Maybe next year! I will be taking quilt-related trips out there but this one involves husbands and dogs and is more about travel than fabric.
We have our dates and route there pretty well picked out. Trip will be in May, the two weeks before Memorial Day Weekend (we will be home recovering on the actual weekend). We'll start out on I-90 which would take us most of the way there, but will drop to see Mt Rushmore following a lower route to Peoria, IL area before heading back up the lake towards Grand Rapids.
On the way back, we are looking at taking the Ferry across the lake from Muskegon to Milwaukee -- mostly "just because" and that gets us easily back to I-90.

We hope to visit some friends in the Minneapolis area on the way back and today's task is to plan the way home.
