Saturday, August 25th,2007

I think today is Saturday but sometimes we just do not keep up with the days. This morning I awoke to the pitter patter of rain drops not little feet but hopefully next Saturday there will be little feet in this motorhome as we will have two of grandchildren for the weekend.
Yesterday we went to Petoskey for lunch and to check out the shopping. Ladies of the ODC, don't go shopping with Linda & Janice, they will get you into trouble. However, I think we all did well on what we brought, even some of it is for Christmas presents.
Petoskey is a small town on Little Traverse Bay which was and still is a popular vacation spot for people from Michign and actually all over. There are lots of local artist, jewelry designers and upscale clothing stores. Us girls decided we do not need clothes at the present time but I was looking for petoskey stone jewelry. The petoskey stone is the state stone of Michigan and very unique found only in this area of Lake Michigan. Cherries are grown in this area also so we stopped at the farmers market and I purchased a cherry pie that had just come out of the oven. Dried cherries are available now but we are late for the fresh ones.
Today we had planned to go to Leland, which is a little fishing village but maybe since it is raining we will wait until tomorrow and just crash today. More later, MEM
