WHAT is PICTURED ROCKS?? And Should YOU Visit?? (Full Time RVing)

[@dianehall6686]

I was raised on Cornish pasties, so let me help you with the pronunciation. When you say “Paste-eze” those are nipple skin coverings that women wear. When you say, “Past-eze” that is pie crust filled with a savory blend of potatoes, onions, meat, etc. Since I’m now a 65 y.o. Master Gardener, let me assure you that rutabagas are savory root vegetables like turnips, whereas rhubarb stalks are usually used for sweet treats like rhubarb-strawberry pie.

[@tonistacy3483]

😂I was thinking that same thing

[@dougall1687]

Yup, brought to the U-P by Cornish immigrants.

[@samanthar6823]

The Picture Rocks tour company is so accommodating. They gave us a full refund about 10 years ago when we couldn't complete our tour due to fog rolling in. Btw, we always ate our pasties with ketchup, but many eat them with gravy. Glad you enjoy our state!❤

[@debmayer1634]

I moved to Michigan about 30 years ago from California and there is so much to see and do here. Fall is my favorite time of year, the crisp air and beautiful foliage. you need to see it in the fall!

[@npribbernow]

If you make it back to the UP - the porcupine mountains are awesome and the Lake in the clouds is so worth it!

[@FjHenderson]

Hey, Paaa- Stee... And you should have taken the morning boat tour. The water with no wind is like a mirror. And on your way to the Taquemenon falls you should have went to Whitefish point.

[@lorettachapman4244]

My sister and her husband lived in the Upper Peninsula for years in Caspian, it is so pretty up there. Lakes, Rivers and waterfalls everywhere. When we would visit we would go hiking everywhere. One trip we did a Lighthouse crawl, stopped at all the Light houses all the way across to her house, which was almost to Wisconsin. Beautiful country for sure.

I live about an hour from Pictured Rocks. It is an awesome vacation destination!

[@maryessenmacher1428]

Yes we do have a beautiful state. Thanks for visiting and this video.

[@Dave17101]

I love your cruise videos,, but it has been so fun to watch your open eyed enjoyment of the people, foods, customs, and natural wonders of this land we call home.

[@harryslater2587]

Rutabagas not rhubarb :) Food of the miners….I am a no gravy guy but its excellent with some Franks Red Hot

[@loreleir5087]

I put that Sh*t on everything!😅

[@tonistacy3483]

Love your Michigan series! I am from Michigan originally. I think it's rutabaga, not rhubarb in Pasties😅

[@tammyb249]

Can I just say I am so glad to see you showcasing Michigan! Michigan has so many great things to offer! Hopefully you get to check out Frankenmuth, Bronners and Tony's Diner at Birch Run. Greenfield Village and Henry Ford Museum are a must also in Dearborn. You could always stop but Ypsilanti to check out their Iconic water tower shaped like a certain male body part. And grab a Big Squeeze with Cheese at Roy's Squeeze-Inn.

[@barbehrhart]

One more suggestion for your next trip to the UP - Kitch-iti-kipi 😊

[@teresalewelling7318]

Thank you for sharing this with me. What a beautiful piece.

[@justjulesinmi]

I'm impressed that you made it that far into Lake Superior. LOL It's always freezing cold. It looks like Superior was pretty calm, though, even for the boat tour to see the Pictured Rocks. So glad you had great weather, too. You HAD to try a pasty, it's a must, like getting a beignet in New Orleans. They're a cornish meat pie that came over with the Cornish miners. Iron and copper mining were a huge industry in the UP. You'll have to come back to MI someday to see all the things you missed this time around! Thanks for showing everyone how beautiful our #PureMichigan is! ✋💜💜

[@niccimerrow4922]

Thank you for coming to my home and letting everyone see how beautiful it is!!

[@janedavies7768]

Another great vlog lovely views regards 🙏♥️🇬🇧

[@the_fry_way]

The pasty thought.... we were there camp hosting for 2 seasons and I should have gotten the gravy and I always added some spice. But, the story behind them is amazing and explains the reason you've got to try one! Great vid. ~Lynette

[@karenball5522]

As someone from the U.K., I’m loving your videos! Pasties are great warm and with mashed potatoes, veg and gravy. Or with chips and ketchup. Or just on their own, but should always be served warm!!! Although they are nice cold too!! Great picnic food!!!

[@bonnie_stuff]

the only time I've ever gotten seasick so far is in a glass bottomed boat in Hawaii! Lake Superior is on my list!

[@loreleir5087]

I have thoroughly enjoyed your latest travels. We met on the Jan group cruise on NCL Breakaway. So glad we did. Looking forward for more to come.

[@Lethndr]

I’m glad you’re enjoying some of the things our state has to offer. We have been long time fans and have enjoyed following your incredible journey. I wish there was a meet and greet. It would have been amazing to see you while you were here. Michigan in the winter is a sight to behold as well. You’re about a month off from the annual color change (for next time). If you have an opportunity you should check out Frankenmuth and Bronner’s Christmas Wonderland. No other place like it. Well worth the visit to hit up German town. Highly recommend Zhenders, Bavarian Inn, or Prost.

[@chriscesafsky7498]

You guys should do Minnesota. Duluth and Lake Supperior is a must see so much to do! North shore. Look that up. Especially this time of year.

[@martins4860]

Chill Bumps andddd Ducks lol . I would have gotten the whole menu of pastries pies . The cheese since in that part of world has to be fantastic. Luv you guys

[@nonaloeffler308]

Love all your videos, I am living and traveling through you. Keep up the good work. Love these better than the ship one's does the ship ones.

[@loreleir5087]

I love them all!

[@judypeeklueer5484]

Another great video! Thanks for sharing our beautiful state! We were there a few years ago, but the boat was full! Next time!

[@annepetry2340]

I like to put sour cream mixed with ketsup and horseradish on my pasties. Yum, yum. Now I'm craving a pasty.

[@JanetsJourneys]

Alisa, on a completely separate note, your hair is looking super cute!

[@lynnbowen8842]

My son's go up there all the time in the winter to go snowmobiling they love it it's beautiful

[@eileenliebel4132]

Ketchup goes great on pasties!!! Only way I will eat them!!!

[@mereniecrosby7120]

I'm so glad you guys did Michigan and loved it so much! This is all driving trips for us who live on the great lakes. Lovely videos!

[@heatherrehbein]

Nice! Now on to the cheeseheads!! I spy Cave Point!

[@MichelleGuiheen-fe2oi]

Wisconsin is MY state!! I’m so excited 🥳.

[@mitchellmadness222]

My husband and I have been planning a trip to Michigan next year so these videos are perfect timing!! Pictured Rock has been at the top of our list, so thanks for sharing your videos!! We love cruising but I'm enjoying all of your rv vlogs even more!!!

[@heideleskun1163]

Grand Haven, Traverse City!! If you are beer/wine fans there are a LOT of wineries and "local" beer places all over. FYI, the words are not pronounced as you think. Munising is Munsing. The falls they were at are TA Quan A Mon. They are Native "Tribe" names. Michigan is a unique state in it's own right. lol you can use your hands to point where you were/are from for both the Upper Peninsula (above the Mackinac (Mack -in-Aw) bridge) or lower Peninsula (known as trolls).

[@Mamagoogs]

You should see the Wisconsin Dells on the wisconsin river and it has beautiful scenery as well just like in superior and i’m from Antigo WI

[@lindacarnahan9566]

We were corrected on our visit there. It's pass tees. Pasties are something you wear. Lol

[@eileenliebel4132]

Loving your videos of the upper midwest by the way!!!

[@CBar-rd6im]

I am enjoying your trip vids. where did you get your sticker map? Kepp having fun!

[@DSCSF52]

It's pronounced Pass Tee...pasties are a whole other thing lol If you ever make it back up there stay at 12 Mile Beach if want a taste of wilderness camping right on Lake Superior! Lake Superior is always ice cold 🥶

[@reneeoverbeck7866]

If you ever would like a homemade pastie, I'm your girl! Even give you a little history lesson on them. 😁

[@michellehopperdietzel4154]

Been there, beautiful part of the country

[@Backstagemom3701]

Kayaking it is amazing❤

[@playinghooky2352]

Next time you guys have a pastry you guys have to have gravy

[@tammyrider9404]

Don’t stay away too long!

[@julieosborn4586]

Will your RV trip bring you to Washington State? I would love to give you some great points to visit in the NW part of the State where we live.

[@deanngardyszewski7058]

Rutabaga not rhubarb😂. Enjoying your channel from here in Michigan

[@ramonal2205]

love it!

[@stevebartley628]

If you could do only one of the boat tours, which one would you do ?

[@bethhalsey7627]

Hey alisa, are you and Jason going to Wisconsin while on your travels

[@barbhorton668]

When do you get to see Ethan and his family again?

[@stomas5640]

Salt River in Mesa AZ where we go tubing the water temp is a constant *68 year round. It’s a shock for a minute or two but when the air temp is 118* it’s definitely refreshing!

[@ujustaddwater]

Must have gravy with your pastie. (Short a) long A is what a stripper wears lol. My daughter was there about the same time and brought me one. Just at it last night. Soooo good.

[@coatiknight1986]

Do Mississippi

[@lesleyputnam8261]

rhutabaga not rhubarb-that would be a different taste :)

[@charlenehowell-r5z]

I am the one who got the part in the movies not chance lol get her some help

[@heideleskun1163]

It's not rhubarb it's rutabaga

[@markfancher5676]

You guys did an excellent video I'm going to post this I'm a michigander I'm going to post this all over

[@markfancher5676]
