Sunset over Mackinac Bridge

theRealG

A couple of friends took me flying for my birthday this year. We flew up to Mackinaw Island, one of Michigan’s gems. I had never been.

It was a beautiful day, ending in a beautiful sunset. I snapped this photo from our 4 seater plane as we flew over Mackinaw Bridge, the 5 mile infrastructure joining Michigan’s Southern and Upper Peninsulas. (If you want to actually reach the island, flying or taking a ferry are your only options.)

It truly was a happy birthday.
