MAY AND JUNE 2014 GREAT RIVER ROAD, LAKE SUPERIOR CIRCLE

We left Texas on May 1 and, after a few days in Louisiana, began to follow the Mississippi northward to its headwaters in Minnesota.  We did frequent diversions away from the river to explore in each of the 10 states:  Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee, Arkansas, Kentucky, Illinois, Missouri, Iowa, Wisconsin and Minnesota.

After reaching the headwaters in Minnesota, we explored a bit more of Minnesota and made our way to Duluth, where we began the Lake Superior Circle tour, through Minnesota, into Ontario, then into Michigan (with a foray south before coming back to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan) and Wisconsin.

After completing the circle, we dropped down to Green Bay, Milwaukee, Door County and finally Chicago before beginning the trek homeward through Indiana, Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas and back to Texas.
