What a beautiful day here in West Michigan today!!! Summer hours, and outta here at noon.

Have a terrific weekend. Go dig in the dirt. Watch some critters (bugs, worms, birds, squirrels, chipmunks, rabbits....) Spend time with their creator.

    Hello Dale!  Getting out of work over here in Saginaw at 2:30 and heading up to Houghton in the Keweenaw Peninsula for a week with the wife.  Have a great weekend!

      There's a place up there west of Copper Harbor called Devil's Washtub. Superior probably hasn't warmed up enough, but it is a great place to jump off a rock formation into the lake. You'll have to ask the locals about it because it isn't posted.

        I'll check it out but I think I'll save the swim trunks for the hotel jacuzzi!  No way Superior is warm enough for me.

          Off today and packing for my flight tonight to Boise, then Anchorage in the morning with my wife and 3 grandkids.

          Planning on the Gold Coast train ride on Wednesday from Anchorage to Seward and back. Four hours each way and 6 hours to roam the streets.

          Back to Boise on the red eye next Friday night, then start the drive home to TN, should be back here by Monday night.

           

          Have a wonderful weekend and week and safe travels to all.
