July 10th 2013 thru July 21st 2013



July 10th    Weds

Cool Morning, and a busy one.  Herbie had a grooming appointment and so did Molly. Eileen and I usually make the same day appointment and go together.  Dan has an Dr. appointment with Dr. to go over his tests reports.
Even though our company is gone, we still get up at  6AM and plan our day.  It seems as though something is always happening.

Eileen took Herbie with her when she took Molly in for her grooming.  Dan and I went into Marquette did some errands before we had to be at his Dr. appointment. Dan's tests came back with everything good.  No reason why he had the issues in Goshen.

Heartland Michigan Chapter is having a rally in August in Ishpeming and we have been helping out with some details.  

We still are emptying out coach from the winter.  We have so much stuff in there that we do not or have not used in some time..  It never fails that we also buy during the winter.  So this year I myself will try to bring less clothes.

The weather has been really nice here in the Upper Peninsula. Warm evenings and in the morning when I let Mr. Herbie out the air smells so good.   I see on the news how hot it is in Texas and the states our friends are in and I am happy that we are here.

The girlfriends had a get together at Pat Hyry home for a class on making glass art and then afterwards we had pasties and a Dairy Queen cake..











We have been seeing our deer come around and the one doe came yesterday with 2 more little ones...

The weather has gotten so hot and humid we stayed indoors as much as possible.. Of course Herbie wanted to go out and in 5 minutes he was back in..

Sunday the 14th we both decided to go out for dinner.  We went to the casino, Dan had a taste for their wet burrito and I had soup and salad.  I would of loved to have a burrito also as they are good, but I knew I couldn't eat that much.  After dinner we went and challenged the machines and of course I lost and Dan came out a few dollars ahead.


On the 16th of July Dan and I went to Concert in The Park. We put our chairs under trees and there was a nice soft wind off of the lake and it was a nice evening.  The band that was performing was a country western and the music was good.

Dan and I decided to take a road trip to Wisconsin to visit my brother and sister-in-law who had moved from Tennessee. It was a nice drive even though it was hot out. We had a nice visit and they drove us around the area.  Herbie and their Golden Lab got along well. After dinner my nephew brought his family over for a visit. It was nice to see the little ones. They sure have grown since I last seen them.  Before they left there was ice cream treats.  Herbie even got his bowl of ice cream also.

Friday morning was a nice morning, instead of making breakfast at home, I suggested that we go out for breakfast.  We went to this nice place called Kings Table and a good breakfast.  When we got back home, we packed up and left for Michigan. Dan had some stops to make at The Man's Stores, to pick up items that he needed.   We arrived home around 6 PM, and  the humidity had gone away and it was nice. Even though the grass needed cutting it is always to be at "Home Sweet Home".



We were up early Saturday morning and the weather was so nice. Dan had his coffee and then went out and got ready to cut the grass. There is about 3 acres of grass.  I thought that it was 5 acres but Dan said it is 3.. After he finished the back half, he came in for some lunch and soon after he went out and cut the front half.It sure looks nice.  Our deer came through the yard for a visit.  Enjoyed our dinner on the porch hoping to see the babies (deer) for playtime.  Did not happen.

Sunday morning it was 49 degrees out and had to wear warm robe.  My niece and her daughters brought my mother to our house.  My mother will be staying with me for a few weeks.
Mr. Herbie had some more attention from the girls.  When bedtime came he was ready for a rest.
