The guys figuring out how to pay for motorcycle parking in the machine. It took them a while...but they all came up with the right change.  Traverse City sure has changed

Splash park in Traverse City where the Zoo used to be

We had fun walking and looking at all the boats....Gayla, Wes, Mike and Paul

Doggie named Sailor!  He is a 1 1/2 year old mini golden doodle, and was such a good dog.  We walked by him, talked to him, and he never moved from his position.  He wasn't on a leash either.

After we ate at Big Boy, Gayla presented Don with a token of our appreciation for him being our Road Captain and doing a great job leading us.  it was a Big Boy Bank

We left our hotel at 8:30 and rode to Manistee for breakfast.  We stopped at Cafe 1907.  It was such a delicious breakfast! Yum!  We drove all day with stops at scenic lookouts, Fish town, Traverse City.  When we walked by all the boats in Traverse City, we saw a cute Goldendoodle named Sailor.  He was a year and a half and was so cute and so well behaved!  We ended up in Kalkaska!  Ate at a Big Boy and had a slim Jim!  Great people to ride with.  Fred let me know he got the DVD ‘s of the Christian Movies I sent.  He was very happy.  He was happy to hear Freddie and Ashtyn rode their bikes to see Melissa and family too!
