| Bill and I were so tired from only getting 3 1/2 hrs. sleep after the concert and we couldn't get into our room until 4. We took a little cat nap in the lobby. Everyone else with us got into their rooms earlier. |

Up at 5 after getting to bed at 1:30 a.m. Wes and Gayla picked us up at 7. Bob and Brenda, Todd’s wife’s sister came with us. We stopped for breakfast at Big Boy in Clare. Got to Mackinaw City at around 11:30. Walked around, the crossed the bridge to go to St, Ignas. Bob and Brenda are from Pennsylvania and had never seen the bridge before. They didn’t see it today either. It was too foggy out. We took the ferry over there to Mackinaw Island. Couldn’t see the bridge all day. We walked to the Grand Hotel and passed horseback riders, carriage riders and bicycle riders on our way. The hotel and grounds are beautiful. Brenda and Bob’s room was ready so we went and saw it. Wes and Gayla and Bill and I had to wait for ours. Theirs was ready nest and finally at 3:30 ours was ready. We relaxed in chairs and took catnaps because we were so tired from so little sleep last night. We rested a few minutes in our room, then went to the first session. Then we relaxed more and changed into dress clothes which have to be worn here after six, and went to dinner. |
Dinner took almost 2 hours, then we went to hear Gary Thomas speak on marriage. He was really good. We went to our room, read our Bibles and went to bed. Yay. Looking to a good nights sleep.
