Day 2

After arriving in Detroit, cachestalker94 and I were shuttled over to the Alamo car rental place where I let cachestalker94 pick out the car and she picked a gold colored PT Cruiser. We immediately got the laptop going and set a course going south to Luna Pier where there was a cluster of caches. I found the How Low can you go in Michigan an earthcache and really liked Your Honor Sir. This cache was at an American Legion building where there was a small monument for a fallen soldier from area who served in Iraq. We found the cache despite that the coordinates were not loaded onto my GPS and when I asked cachestalker94 to route us to the cache, she accidentally moved the waypoint. Found the cache because the container is hanging on the monument itself. At Luna Pier it was cachestalker94's first view of the Great Lakes and she took the time to put her feet in the water.

After Luna Pier, we moved onto Toledo and found a few caches on the north part of the city. It was enough to add the state of Ohio onto our profiles. It was beginning to get hot on us and we put the car back on I-75 and headed north. Our last find was a rest stop cache. I simple micro made difficult by attacking mosquitoes.

Arrived at Utica and found the motel. The drive was long and had the experience of the Michigan Left Turn. I can't say the experience was pleasant.

After regrouping at the motel, cachestalker94 wanted to go to the mall. A huge mall was located a couple of miles away, with the horrid traffic and Michigan Left Turns, the couple of miles took about 20 minutes. Found a cache at the mall and went shopping. Had dinner at Red Lobster and retired to the motel.
