Berry Laker Vacation

Berry Laker family vacation to MIS , NASCAR weekend. Pictures in no particular order and just a couple comments. Left at 9:00 am on Tuesday. MIS or bust. Headed toward HWY 41, M35 and US2 to Mackinac Bridge I75 to M127 to M12.


View looking at Mackinac Island. Could be a vacation stop someday.


What a man made work of art.


You can't see it here but there is maintenance on the bridge 24/7. For being over 52 years old, it still looks good.

Made it to our first fill up in Gaylord Mi.

Mrs Berry Laker's pool set up in camp.

View of Berry Laker campsite in Brooklyn Mi.

Seems to be a Mark Martin # 5 fan in camp.

Yes, there were other fans in camp.


Some of the other campers in camp.

Sunday driver intro and ride around track. Looks like the Target 42 driver.

Sunday 12:30 pm eastern time walking into the track. This is picture of the track from the southwest. It's a two mile track so it takes a while to get around.

Adult beverages at camp. Bottle cooler, "Berry Good Beer"

Fly over at Saturday's Carfax 250.

Qualifying on Friday.

This guy doesn't seem to be a Tony Stewart fan.

There's smoke # 14 and baby face Kasey Kahne.

Looking over the grandstand at MIS.

Sprint cars lined up for practice run.




Reutimann and Gordon.


Coming around to the start of the race on Sunday. Green flag about to fly. Let's go racing.

Campfire on Sunday night. What a GREAT weekend.
Sorry for no posts last week but I am the only one to post on my site. Next year, maybe I can find a guest blogger. This guy is very lucky to have such a GREAT wife, GREAT sons, and GREAT fiends from Michigan at MIS in the Irish Hills of Michigan.

Back home by 5:00 on Monday night. Nothing like sleeping in your own bed.
