You getting in a Mackinaw Island pissing match with Tanfan over at tTurd is no reason to drag that shit over here, Nigel. Stop fucking up this board

The fort. Butterfly House is close second.

That thread dropped off the front page. Nigel needs to reaffirm his getting the last word.

I remember my dad took me to some cool fort that was used for a war back in the day. Or something like that. They had good fudge. I actually got lost for a bit. My parents freaked out.

"good fudge" is definitely a characteristic I look for when considering vacation destinations.

For the record Bob, just so we are still on good terms, we haven't been back and was really only there for a basketball tourney.

you and I will always be on good terms..

I might dig it up there in the winter. Are the people there in the winter? If so, are they the same goobers that are there in the summer? That would likely be a deal breaker.

This is hell....

is there away you could reserve the entire island to protect yourself from this?

Is the old guy in the middle wearing a State hat? That might be LWS.

Either that or his blood pressure is 300/200.

maybe that's why all the folks in the front row are wearing rubber shoes.. just in case Uncle Dave explodes and they have to wade through the mess.

I love rocky beaches with cold water.  Why is no one swimming?

Stop staring at me kid! You're not going back in! You broke it the first time!

Because they are wimpy folks from the suburbs?

[Wally Fairway]

Bob -
You should go, the trick is to spend a night or two on the island. When all the day-trippers (aka Fudgies) leave on their boat it is actually fairly quiet. The bike paths are not crowded, it is easy to get around (or over) the island on the pavement or there are some unpaved trails/paths if that is more of your thing.
You can see the forts, the cemetery and breath fresh air and there are a few bars around the Island that are decent.

Of course the combined stench of lilac, fudge and horseshit will forever remind you of Mackinac.

Doubt it.

Probably just in another fudge shop.

Another one? Let's go in here too! Fudge!

Does this mean you're not going to post a pic of your favorite thing on Mackinac Island?

What I don't understand is why you're scared off by a few rocks and cold water. Why are you scared of nature?

Edit: Wait, were you serious? I assumed sarcasm.

I worked at the island for a summer right after graduating high school. First I worked at Ryba's fudge - I was a fudge cook. To this day, damn near 40 years later, I still won't eat that shit. Then I was a dish washer at Little's Bob's.

You tourists can make fun of going there, but I can tell you the summer of '76 was one of the best summers of my life. I loved it up there.
Back in '07, took my kids up there and showed them where I lived. Even tho it had been 21 years, the people who owned the house still remembered me and welcomed my entire family in. Loved the view every morning leaving that house.

Early onset Alzheimers? You lost 10 years in there somewhere.

When you're my age, losing 10 years might be a good thing. Meant to say '97, instead of 07, but either way it seems like yesterday. At least I can still remember it, Alzheimers be damned!
