Michigan




The family headed north 450 miles the day after Grandma's funeral. I was still emotionally quite drained and appreciated all of Mark's work to get us ready for the trip. Lauren and Quinten were also helpful and very good traveler's. We had one "emergency" when we could not find an open restroom late at night. Quinten discovered a male advantage need I say more? The biggest problem was he had an "emergency" the next day right outside of Carl and Linda's house so we needed to explain what constituted a real emergency. We did have a jet ski problem when Janet drove over the rope pulling Mark in an inner tube. Lauren did not realize that being a spotter also meant pulling up a rope. The picture is Mark's 45 minute repair job to save the jet ski. This came after a 30-45 minutes of pushing/pulling/swimming the jet ski back to Carl and Linda's. It was wonderful to be away, relax and have time with family. A huge thank you to Linda and Carl for sharing their summer home with us!
