Mancelona Bike Ride

Mancelona Ironman sculpture outside the high school, recognizing the town's iron working heritage (Antrim Ironworks - 1886-1945)

What was once a company house in Mancitucky, aka Antrim

Beware of the Bear, Antrim

Road down to Green Lake ... Let's fly over this soft sand!

Green Lake. Water level is way down.

Chapman Cemetery. Guitar pickin' and truck drivin'

Mancelona Steel Tank, still operating.

Pete or Ken? (Mancelona Steel Tank tractors)

This one's retired.

The old Mt. Clemens Metal Projects plant, later Gulf & Western, later Dura ... Now shut down.

The adjective ramshackle comes to mind.

Stone House.

Maverick shut down too.

Harleys lined up outside the Pressbox. Ashley's Ride
