Got up and hit
the road. Decided that getting to
Charlevoix was probably a bit of a stretch today. But there is a new puppy at Isla’s house, so
we decided it was a great opportunity to see the MI WonderKid, her parents and
Rufus. So that’s where we aimed the
truck. Our route took us past Fort
Wayne….have a great niece in the hospital there, so we decided to make a quick
stop on our way through. Got to see
nieces, nephews, sister and brother-in-law while there.

Not much
happening in our world today except for driving, eating, and dozing along the
way…me, not Kim. No side stops…well,
except for the hospital visit. When we
were leaving the hospital, we started the search for a bathroom. Took a few
more minutes than I would have liked but eventually found them. I was waiting for Kim to come out and noticed
a man doing the same kind of searching we had been doing. Also noticed the look of relief on his face
when he saw the ‘restrooms’ sign hanging from the ceiling. As he came around the corner in the direction
the arrows indicated, eyes still searching for the door, he muttered, “Trying
to find a bathroom is like trying to find Waldo.” Well said, sir…well said!

Felt a small
thrill when we passed the “Pure Michigan” sign.
Back to The Mitten State and our own time zone!! We’ve had some minor bumps along the way, but
overall it’s been a great trip. But as
with every lengthy time away, it’ll be good to get home and back to our
life. J We’ll have to get the coolant issue checked
out on the truck and we’ll have to determine the extent of the damage on the
bikes. I’m expecting to be bombarded by
work calls next week….I had our home phone forwarded to my cell so I could deal
with work calls as they came up. Told people I’d be back to work on the 18th
and to give me a call back then. So
I’ll be facing that music next week, but until that time I’m just going to
enjoy being back home…maybe do a little tap dancing. J
TY AGAIN FOR TAKING US ALONG !!
