Winter Break Day One (1)

So the kids started winter break today, Friday, February 15, 2013. We got out of work early, got home and started packing. We took the boys, our nephew Scottie and their friends Kayla and Tyler. There were too many people to put in the van to take one vehicle so we took the truck too. Everything was packed to capacity in both vehicles.

We had decided last week to go to Outdoor Adventures in Standish. We got the largest modular they had which is like a house. Everyone has their own bed and we actually have an extra. There is not much going on at this camp ground this time of year. Everyone is at the park in Davison.

We went to the club house and their were a few people in the pool. The game room is really out of date and we are not sure the games even work. We will be visiting Standish tomorrow.

We (Michelle) blew a breaker cooking supper. But we got the frige going again and the range worked so we survived and had great fajita's. The guy at the gate was of great assistance and they will be in tomorrow to fix the power issue.

The events in the house were very exciting as we settled in for a movie.

Scottie under attack!

So we are settled in for the night and we will see what tomorrow will bring. The roads are a little icy up here and there is a lot of snow on the ground. I hope to get a ride in tomorrow and we may do some bowling. Until then good night!

Summer Vacation: Day 10, Heading Home.

Sunday would be a long day of travel as we would make the trek home in one day. Still shorter than driving from Marquette. We had breakfast and started to pack up. I had put the bikes on the van Saturday evening while the grill was heating up and loaded a few things up. We managed to get on the around just a few minutes after 12:00pm. Michelle would take the first leg of the drive at the wheel of the van and I would rest. We made a stop at a rest area in Manistique and I took a few photos. A lighthouse for Michelle. A mouse in a tuxedo! We got back on the road and stopped at another rest area. Very cool! Brendan made a friend. The were not to bad. Our next stop would be St. Ignace. We wanted to eat at Clyde's Drive In. However, after arriving the place was packed. So we went to B.C. Pizza again. After lunch we made our way to Castle Rock as we were not able to climb it on o...

Mother's Day Part II

On Sunday we celebrated Mother's Day at Church followed by a buffet at the Whistle Stop in Clio. It was a very good meal and fun for all. The Bauer's The Garcia's The Cody's minus Tyler Then we celebrated at our house with Michelle's family in the evening with another big feast. Help Yourselves! A good time was had by all and one of the best Mother's Day celebrations yet. Happy Mother's Day, we love you all!

Happy Labor Day!

So we had another busy week leading up to Labor Day Weekend. On Wednesday we had Brendan's open house for 4th Grade. We did some shopping after and I sold my Giant OCR. Giant OCR Composite 3 I bought this bike in 2005. I put some good miles on it over the years. For about 6 years it had been in the basement on the trainer. I had rebuilt it this summer and took it out a couple of times. It just seemed to big now. I guess I am a little older and less flexible. I decided to put it up for sale as it just did not fit any longer. I found a nice young man that was looking for a road bike and he really liked it. It is going to a good home and will be out on the road where it belongs. The funds from this sale went toward the purchase of a front wheel to go on the Farley and will fit the Bluto. That wheel should be in some time this week. On Saturday morning we did not have Brendan. He stayed at mom's with ...
