And after all that...

Our first real trip in the Baron.
Just got back from a weekend up to northern MI; Friday up to Traverse City in time for a late latte and a browse in the bookstore, meandered over to Leland for fresh whitefish dinner, then down to Frankfort for a weekend meeting at Crystal Mountain. Today down the rest of M22 along Lake Michigan to Manistee, stopping to nose around as desired, and then the rapid highway pound back to Grand Rapids.
About 480 miles of perfect behavior; what a wonderful machine. I've never driven anything that becomes an extension of me the way a Benz does. Now to get the passenger seat a bit softer to SWMBO's taste!
