Home Again..

Well our wandering days are done (at least for now)...we had a great week. Last Wednesday we went to a really nice cottage on Dragon Lake, Michigan where Pam and Dan (daughter and son in law) were staying for the week, and spent the rest of the week with them. While there we celebrated Pam's birthday on the 17th! This picture is Pam, her friend Diane and Fred...getting ready to enjoy the birthday "cookie"!!



Had lots of good times. Then on Saturday they headed back home and Fred and I headed out to do some more wandering around our beautiful state of Michigan..we left there not having any definite plan on where we were going and drove the whole day and ended up back at Mackinaw City!! On Sunday we crossed the Mackinaw Bridge and toured around the upper peninsula..I know we did that last month but this time took some back roads that we had never taken before and found some great views of Lake Superior and some trees along the way starting to change their color.. Here are a few of the pictures...

And one more of one of the roads we found that had some beautiful color already.....

Then on Monday we took the ferry over to Mackinac Island and spent the day there. Fred and I went on the Carriage Tour (again) we have been on it several times over the years but enjoyed it so much!! Then our granddaughter Alyssa (who lives on the Island year round now) got off work and we took her out to eat before we left to come back to Mackinaw City. All in all a wonderful day!! Cool but sunny!! This morning we awoke to a wonderful "summer like" day and it was nice traveling home in that kind of weather..between 85 and 90 degrees all day and lots of sunshine!! Love it!! Home now and all unpacked..settling in and watching the Detroit Tigers on tv..

Tomorrow back to a routine around here...but it has been a wonderful week!! Be back with some more pictures in a day or so..
