We got ready, packed last minute stuff and loaded the truck. Kit Kat tried to sneak in the garage, but I saw her and put her outside. I texted all four girls on the way up, and Maddy too. We crossed the Mackinaw Bridge around 11:30 and ate breakfast in St. Ignace. The wind was blowing across Lake Michigan making the road snow covered and a little slick at times. We were in the best lane that was clearer than the other. When we were a half hour from our destination, the sun came out and the roads were clear. We got to our hotel at 3:15. We took a little ride through town before we checked in to our motel. We relaxed for a half hour and then, went to visit friends Sharon and Bill. I found their address online, but couldn’t find their number. We stopped in and they were so happy to see us and so hospitable. We had such a great visit and fun sharing memories. I was 11 and Sharon was 16 when we lived across from each other back in the boonies. Her Sister was my best friend for the 5 years I lived there. Sharon and Bill got married when she was 17. They have been married 60 years now. I forgot to take our picture together. Bummer! We went to Poppi’s Pizzeria after we left their house and had the best pizza. We got a 14 inch pizza 1/2 burger and no cheese and the other half with pepperoni, green olives and mushrooms. Guess what half was mine lol!
We came back to our motel and read our Bibles and relaxed.
