Near which towns does US-41 begin and end?

Copper Harbor and Miami, FL

Didn't even have to look. Have seen that sign so many times.

Have a great day!

Would love to have Julie's job, and Dan's photo is beautiful!

Miami Florida and beauuuutiful Copper Harbor!

Copper Harbor, MI and Miami, FL.
Sorry, I cheated and peeked!! J

1,990 miles between Copper Harbor and Miami.

Splendid set of pix...gotta love summer!

I knew the mileage without looking at today;s review. because like Deb, have many personal pictures of the sign. Greg Allman of the Allman Brothers Band was born in the back of a bus on Highway 41 in the song "Ramblin Man.

Didn't know that, Janie!

Capt Paul, when are you and Dr. Nat leaving for
Norway?

We leave next Tuesday (July 17) for Norway, Sweden, and Finland. Some of the places we'll be staying have internet access so maybe I'll post a photo or two along the way....

Awww, what a cute photo of Brody and Brimley, Janie! ;) Looks like they love having their pictures taken!

Safe travels, Capt & Dr Nat!!

Post your pictures at every opportunity ~ we'll be enjoying them from afar! Of course we'll be expecting a full explanation of what you're showing us too ~

Thanks jbuck!
Like I said some of the places have internet, especially in the south of Norway. At our furthest point north we'll be at the top of Europe at a place called Nordkapp, where the only things between us and the North Pole will be ice and polar bears!! Our quest is to see the midnight sun, but from the looks of the long range forecasts it's going to be chilly and wet. Another one of our stops takes us to a mountain glacier that we can hike on for a couple hours.

When I can, keep an eye out on this page; I'll post some pics every now and then of our journey to see the Dr's ancestoral homeland.

Oh come on now Capt Paul, who are you trying to
fool?!

You know the polar bears and glaciers are virtually
gone!!!

Capt...took a look Google street-view Norway and I can see why Dr. Nat enjoyed Scotland. You can almost paddle to John O' Groats. Enjoy!

Capt. be sure to take tons of pictures, especially if you're planning to go to Scotland on this trip to make an album to view here on Pasty!!!

What Janie said, Capt. Too bad you won't be in the UP in August when we're there this year, though. But I guess if you MUST go abroad........

Janie,
We won't make it to Scotland, but I have an album of photos when I was there in 2008. You can see it here. The photos aren't the greatest as my camera was slightly malfunctioning.

Alex,
We actually discussed taking the ferry from Aberdeen to Bergen when we were in Scotland, but decided we would visit Norway on a separate vacation instead.

Deb,
Sorry we won't make it UP there this year, but we are planning two trips to Houghton in 2013; that is, if the Mayan calender doesn't come to pass.... :-P

Capt, your Scotland trip pictures are awesome, beautiful scenery! Thanks so much for sharing!!

Janie... My son spent the spring semester this year studying
abroad in the UK. He was at Harlaxton College in Grantham,
England. He traveled to Scotland and all over the UK, and
went to Spain, Poland and Italy. The pictures of Scotland were
spectacular. It was so beautiful, even in late winter wjen he
was there. He got to take a cruise on Loch Ness and and a
bus tour through the Scottish Highlands.
