...great!" Fire up your ovens! It's a new dawn at the National Cherry Festival, for 72 years a celebrated rite of summer in quaint Traverse City, Mich. For the first time in more than two decades, you'll be able to buy a slice of freshly made cherry pie at the fest, which runs all next week along the breathtaking Grand Traverse Bay of Lake Michigan.

From the deerskin bustiers to the evangelistic "Riders for Christ," the Great American Motorcycle Show makes you want to put on that American flag do-rag and sing "The Star-Spangled Banner." Any red-blooded American should be proud to shell out their eight dollars to see the latest in Japanese motorcycle technology...
