On this day, June 27, 1912, Richard Collier, played by Christopher Reeve, traveled back in time to find his true love, Elise McKenna, played by Jane Seymour, in the 1980 movie, Somewhere in Time.
“It is June 27, 1912. You are lying in your bed in the Grand Hotel and it is 6 p.m. on the evening of June 27, 1912...You have traveled back in time, soon you will open your eyes. You will walk into the corridor, and you will go downstairs and you will find Elise McKenna, who is in this hotel at this very moment.”
Filmed at Grand Hotel in 1979, Somewhere in Time continues to be a beloved classic for those searching for old-world charm and whimsical adventures that transcend time. ✨

SOMEWHERE IN TIME Filming Locations THEN & Now | MACKINAC ISLAND | CHRIS...
youtube
One of my favorite travel vloggers visits filming locations for one of my all-time favorite movies.
Somewhere in Time is a beloved cult classic today. But it was released during the SAG-AFTRA strike of 1980, and Christopher Reeve and Jane Seymour were unable to do any promotions for it. So, it languished at the box office and didn't find its wider audience until it was released on TV and home video.
I sometimes wonder if seeing it at a formative age contributed to the amount of time I spend in maladaptive daydreaming, trying to figure out what mistakes I should change if I'm able to go back in time.

'Over the bounding main '
I looked out onto the lake Wednesday morning and saw a half-dozen sails scattered along the Lake Huron horizon, on a leisurely float southward.
That could only mean one thing: The annual Bayview Mackinac Race - from Port Huron to Mackinac Island - was over and the sailors were bound for home.
The loosely-knit parade continued for much of the day. No wonder; about 200 boats competed this year in what is considered one of the most challenging freshwater boat races in the world.
The race started on Saturday and covered either 204 nautical miles , or 259 miles, depending on which route a boat takes, which is determined, I guess, by prevailing winds.
The winner was Fast Tango with a crew of 10 out of St. Clair Shores.
