Thursday afternoon

My next stop was to be a restaurant named Legs Inn located in Cross Village. Cross Village is a very small village located at the west end of county road 66 north of Harbor Springs. The rain was still falling and the sky was a bit ominous. I pretty much made my mind up to pass on the Legs Inn and move on down to Harbor Springs when as I approached the C66 turn off for Cross Village my turn signal developed mind of its own and indicated a right turn. So, of course not to confuse the driver behind me, I had no choice but to make the turn and ride off west across some pretty nasty county roads toward Cross Village.

As I arrived in the 3 building village I pulled into a Mobil station and topped off. I asked where to locate Legs Inn and was told to look behind the station about 200 yards and I would see it.
Here is a picture of the restaurant.

There were quite a few bikes and I couldn't figure out why so many bikers wanted to ride the last 15 miles or so of lousy road just to eat here. I chatted a bit with a couple on a ride out of Petoskey and they declared the food to be fantastic. Some day I will go back and try it but at the time I was not hungry. I told them I was headed for Harbor Springs and then hoped to make Petoskey before night fall. They said I would have no problem and to just take M119 south out of Cross Village and it would take me directly to Harbor Springs. I thanked them and set off along 119. Not 100 yards down the road I came across a sign that read Tunnel of Trees. Slow curves next 22 miles!!! I have lived in Michigan for 55 years and had never heard of this road. I don't have pictures to do it justice. I could not stop to take them but do a google on Tunnel of Trees and you will find plenty far more beautiful than what I can contribute. Suffice it to say this 22 mile stretch of curves and dips is Michigan's own version of the Tail of the Dragon.
