Wednesday - Friday, Aug 24 - 26
Wednesday we really didn't do anything as we had to wait around the rig for my medication to arrive. That took up over half the day. We just rested and did a little cleaning.
Thursday we had an exciting day planned. First we went to do the laundry. My once a week thrill. After that we went to lunch. Now lunch was interesting. We drove up the road a few miles to an Uno's Pizza. This is deep dish Chicago style pizza. It isn't as good as Lou Malgnati's but it is my second choice when in Chicago. Since this is as close as I am going to get we decided to eat here. On the way back we stopped at Walmart and picked up a couple of things.
Back on the road we pulled into a fruit and veggie stand where I got some more tomatoes. They taste so much better. I may have to go back and get some more stuff when I finish off what we have. We didn't have dinner as we were still full from lunch.
Friday we decided to take a drive along the coast. I got some pictures of Lake Huron. Coastlines here are not like Calif. There are a bunch of trees so you can't see the lake and most of the land is privately owned with summer houses on it so you can't access the beach except in very few places. We finally did manage to find a place and take a few pictures.
One of the towns up here is pretty famous for its cheese. We stopped at one of the cheese stores and picked up some. One thing we did get was chocolate cheese. I have seen this made before but have never tasted it. I will let you know how it is after I do.
We have been in contact with the family in NC and they are all hunkered down for the weekend. Poor Ashley, her baby shower was suppose to be on Saturday but has been postponed until next weekend due to Irene. They should be fine, they have all the supplies and a generator at the house. We hope everything will be fine.
We have been watching the Little League World Series. It is fun to watch the little kids play. We had problems trying to decide between Pennsylvania and California when they were playing. Both teams were good and I am sure they had fun. We went to the LLWS back in 2008 and really enjoyed ourselves there. We will go back one day.
That is all for now. Enjoy the pictures.
