The New Old Bridge

Posted on by Posted in Bridges .

Whites Bridge crosses over the Flat River south of Smyrna. The bridge that stands today is a replica of a bridge that was built in 1870. The original bridge was destroyed in 1983, by an arsonist that set fire to the historic structure. The new bridge was constructed and opened to traffic in 2020. It may not be the original but it is a beautiful looking bridge and a joy to drive across it.

The Water in Honor

Posted on by Posted in Artesian Springs .

The small town of Honor sits along US-31 where it bends from north and south to head east and west near the base of the Leelanau Peninsula. Across the road from the grocery store is a roadside park with a pavilion. It is there you will find an artesian spring that flows into two round concrete basins. I like to stop there and fill up some bottles of water for my adventures in the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. It is also a great place to fill up some water jugs with the clear and clean water the flows out of the northern Michigan ground.
