A Relaxing Get Away


I had such a wonderful time visiting Jay and Cheryl. What happened to my pictures though, I can't figure. I uploaded them onto my automatic picture frame thing, and when I put them back on the computer, they got lost somewhere in cyberspace, except for these. So until I find them, I can just tell you I had a ball. We rode the River Queen paddle boat, a 2 hour cruise down the AuSable River that was so beautiful. The swans swam alongside the boat. I had a picture taken of me steering the boat, my sister did too, just for fun. The captain even lets you wear his cap!
We also heard a nesting pair of loons on Silver lake, which was a major treat since there are only 300 pairs in Michigan. It was awesome!
Much time was spent out on the back deck, sewing, chatting, and just enjoying the peace and quiet. A couple days before we got there, Jay had a bear in the side yard. I was really hoping to see one, but they're more afraid of us than we are of them. (So they say!!) But I do want to have that experience some day.
Cheryl is an amazing cook, and we ate well, perhaps too well< :) but oh it was soooo good!!! Memories for a lifetime, I can't wait to go back!
