Mackinac Bridge at Night

Someone recently commented that the Mackinac Bridge looks best at night, so here is a postcard of it. The card is postmarked July 19, 1983, and on the back it reads:

"Dear Mert,

Twelve of us biked around the island yesterday. Met Betty Phillips, sister & family. Sure is hot. but fun. Today we'll visit the town. swim, and take it easy. Then to the cottage tomorrow.
-Joan.


The island referred to is Mackinac Island. The bridge passes near it, but does not connect to it at all.

That was written three days after I turned 18.

It is stunning at night. Almost like Christmas.

I enjoy reading the postcard comments very much. I find that I want to know more... or perhaps make up a story to go with it. What's at the cottage? Why are they going? Mysteries.

I think it looks pretty during the day too...but almost everything looks better at night :-)

Beautiful night time picture. As for the comments, why did they wait so long to go to the cottage?
