We got ready and went to Charlie and Sue’s to ride with them to the Shack. We thought we would eat at one of our usual restaurants on the way, but all three had closed. Very sad. No
other restaurants in these towns either. We ended up going to the Ala Mode Restaurant in Big Rapids. It was one of the best breakfasts we’ve ever had. They even had a space on the Big Rapids monopoly board. We headed to the Shack after that and got in our room in the Grainery at 2. Such a nice room. We always love it at the Shack.
We got settled in our rooms, then Sue wanted to take a nap, so Bill and I went to the main building to check out the gift shop, and walk around in the building. We played a game of pool down in the basement. Charlie called to let us know, they wanted to play Skip Bo, so we went back to the rec room in the Grainery. We girls won the first game. The guys won the second game. We went over to the main building to eat dinner. They had yummy meatloaf, chicken, mashed potatoes, mixed veggies, rolls, and a delicious salad. We tried not to eat too much because they have banana splits every night at 8. We went and played Euchre until 8. The girls won 2 and the guys won 2. The guys won the 5th game.
We had our banana splits. Marv, the owner who is 88, scooped the ice cream just like always. There were 10 different kinds of ice cream to choose from. Everyone gets 3 scoops, but Bill always asks Marv for 5 scoops and gets them. We sure enjoyed those banana splits. We visited for a while, then went to our rooms.
