Today is another picture perfect day. Our destination for today is Leggs Inn in Cross Village.

We drove the scenic route which took us through Petoskey, Harbor Springs and Good Hart. In both Petoskey and Harbor Springs we drove through subdivisions of big, beautiful, old summer homes. What amazing architecture. John said these home very rarely come up for sale as many are owned by corporations (or trusts) or are passed down through families.

At Good Hart we made a side trip to St. Ignatius of Loyola church and cemetery. There's a beautiful beach behind the church.

After we left the church we continued down the road and came to a very steep one way hill (going up the hill). John, driving his car proceeded up the hill first. He was a little surprised when he met a car coming down the hill. The driver of the other vehicle tried to persuade John to back up but John refused knowing he was in the right. After a few moments the other driver backed up. Seeing the way clear I started up the hill in the RAV and couldn't believe my eyes when the car met me on the hill. This time the other driver didn't argue but backed up into a pull off on the side of the road. When we got to the top of the hill I saw the large DO NOT ENTER sign. Guess the other driver lives at this end of the road and probably doesn't meet any traffic when she sneaks down the hill.

I can't believe Ed didn't take any photos of the front of the restaurant, so here's the patio where we enjoyed our lunch. The roof of the restaurant is lined with wood stove legs ... thus the name Leggs Inn.

Good Polish food. We shared a couple of appetizers with the group, then split a lunch platter consisting of pirogies, cabbage roll, sausage and hunter stew.

Again a dessert to split between the six of us. A fruit cobbler with ice cream and whipping cream.

One of the reasons to eat at Leggs Inn is the view. Beyond the patio is a lush green lawn and beyond that is Lake Michigan. Esther, Carol and myself are looking at the light houses far out in the lake.

A walk around Cross Village brought us to this bear. One side is decorated with it's Indian Heritage and other is decorated with it's more recent history.
