Anyone else planning to visit Michigan before the rally?

I have been researching things to see and places to stay. We are leaving around August 7 or 8 and plan to visit the western side of the state, then up to Mackinaw (unfortunately over Labor Day), and a stop at the Henry Ford on the way to Elkhart.

Sounds like there should be lots of good food along the way. Hopefully lots of swimming for the dog so she is ready to sleep a couple of days at the rally.
