11/17/13 Fun Get A Way in Mt. Pleasant with my sweetie Bill!

We went to church in the morning.  It was my day to teach Sunday School.  In my class we made cards for 3 guys from church who are in the military to thank them and let them know we are thinking of them.  We also made cards for wounded soldiers to be delivered to them.  The kids loved making the cards and working together.  It was camo day so most of us were in camo as you can see in the picture below.  Love these kids!  So much fun!  After we got home from church and ate, we headed to Mt. Pleasant for our free get-a-way.  We got our room 2043 and put our things away in it.  Walked around and checked out the pool temp.  The wind really picked up and it started raining lots.  Signs in the parking lot were blowing down.  There was a tornado watch in much of Michigan and bad storms in the mid United States.  Tornados did much damage in Indiana.  So sad for the people there.  I called and checked on all the girls and families to make sure they were ok.  When the rain let up, we went to Olive Garden for dinner.  Bill got a military discount there so that was great.  We had a wonderful waiter.  He even let me have salad and bread sticks for free with Bill while I waited for my pizza.  Bill got spaghetti.  So yummy!  We headed back to the hotel.  We decided to get exercise swimming so headed to the pool.  Swam for a while and then got in the hot tub.  Had a nice conversation with another vet who was from Saginaw, had served in Viet Nam with Bill the same time, and was the same age only 2 months older than dad.
