The people we met were often more intersting than the beer we drank...

My wife and I just returned from a short vacation to Michigan. It was a beer pilgrimage of sorts. We set off toward Michigan with a few breweries as destinations then relied on the recommendations of people we met as our travel guide. We ended up visiting 10 different breweries and tap houses. We drank at least one beer at each stop and ate at most of them. Some beer was better than others, some food was better than others, but the people we met were often what made the difference between a memorable visit and just another beer at a brew pub. We also did a little camping in the Michigan state parrks. Even though this is primarily a beer blog, I will post a little about the state parks because this was an integral part of our beer related journey.
