Port Sanilac’s history museum turned its grounds into a world wine tour over the weekend. The Sanilac County Historic Village and Museum hosted its Sip and Stroll fundraiser Saturday evening, letting guests wander the grounds while sampling wines from around the globe, alongside live string quartet music and appetizers. Organizers redesigned the event this year so every ticket included the full tasting experience upfront. Advance tickets were cheaper online, with walk-ins welcomed at the door. Proceeds helped preserve the museum’s history for future visitors.

A quick-thinking rescue near Unionville last week after a Jeep Wrangler plunged into the water just off Vassar Road. Crews were called Wednesday morning and found the vehicle roughly 100 yards offshore, submerged in 3 to 4 feet of water with the driver still trapped inside. Firefighters suited up and launched a rapid deployment craft, pulling the driver to safety. The driver is alive and well, now recovering after crews wrapped up the scene with help from local sheriff’s deputies, ambulance crews and a towing company.
