The Reid kids had to go to school this morning and the parents, Chris and Gina needed to return to work. We made sure we could say our goodbyes and hope we will see them again before too long. Chris helped get the connection to the Invisibrake more secure and everything was working like it was supposed to when we left. It's nice to have a aitomotive electronic specialist for a nephew. Sorry if I got that wrong Chris. It was a fun visit and we have some great memories. I learned a lot about them that I did not know before. Chris and Gina are calm and loving parents and Lucas and Elizabeth are lucky to have them, and vice versa!
Off we went to Port Huron. MI just before entering Canada.
We took care of a few things before arriving at The Harvest Host, Lowe Lodge. We had a very private spot.
We went to see the Thomas Alva Edison Museum near the St Claire River where across the river is Canada.
The river had a nice color blue to it and it was such a beautiful day that we took a walk. We stopped for fish tacos and a beer at an establishment nearby to soak up the view.
We returned to our campsite to take the boys for a walk and resume ladder ball. I won that round but Kasey insisted on a tie breaker and he prevailed. He is very good. Mosquitoes were picking up and we decided to have a campfire. I recorded Northern Cardinal, Gray Catbird, indigo Bunting, and White-breasted Nuthatch while sitting at the campfire. We feel as if we are in a nature preserve. After spending a week in Michigan, and despite the little annoying insects that you can manage with spray or clothing, we are fond of Michigan. Even the coyotes.
Thinking about all our friends in Douglas County, OR where there are fires threatening the forest and homes of our home town. The air quality is not healthy. Stay safe friends in Roseburg. We are worried about you.
We talked with several of our friends today. Mike Burke, Jerry Mires, Ken Carloni, Ray Bartram, Jeri Frank and it helped to hear from our friends.
