This big semi pulling a wind turbine pole came off of the ferry.  It was something to see.
Dinner at Old Hamilin's in Ludington.  


Wes, Gayla and Bill..We played outside our motel

Me sitting by our little fire place..I told Wes and Gayla I was going to sit by the fire after playing cards outside.  It was kind of cool outside.  They wanted a picture ha ha!
Met at Meijer and left for our motorcycle ride.  It was a beautiful day, 60 degrees when we left, but it warmed up fast to the 70’s.  We had a relaxing ride and stopped along the way.  Our first stop was for breakfast.  It was delicious.  We made it as far as Ludington and checked into the Lighthouse Motel.  Nice cute rooms, but small.  Renee, Dan and Greg rode to Ludington and went down by the beach with us and then to House of Flavors for ice cream.  Christine Holden walked and met us at the beach.  She walked to the House of Flavors with us and had ice cream too.  Afterward she had Bill and I come see their new Condo which was across from the ice cream place but down by the water where the USS Badger comes in.  Her condo was beautiful!  Nice pool too!  She made us coffee, and we visited and then prayed.  Got back to the motel and rested for a while, then went to watch the badger come in.  There were semi’s parked with pole parts for wind turbines. They were enormous.  We talked to one of the drivers and he had crossed on the badger and was going to go to Wheeler to deliver it.  He was a Christian and was from Florida.  We went to dinner at Old Hamlin’s.  We had the perch dinner.  The owner was so sweet.  She even came out and offered to take a picture for us. The restaurant is 60 years old and she has been there the whole time.  Everything was delicious and lots of good homemade food.  Wes and Gayla surprised Bill and I and bought our meals.  So sweet of them!  Melissa called me and told me Freddie and Ashton rode their bikes and came to see them at the State Park In Tawas.  So sweet of them!  It made me so happy!We came back and played 3-13 outside with Wes and Gayla.  Bill won.  I was the big loser.  I did stay under 200 though.
