Monday June 30, 2025

So time continues to fly by. Chris, Marie and I did fly back to Wisconsin after Memorial Day. MJ flew into Appleton for the weekend to tour her old spots in Oshkosh with Marie, while Chris and I went down to Milwaukee for my cousin’s son’s wedding. We had a great time with a beautiful ceremony and the reception at the Harley Davidson Museum. A time to catch up with most of my remaining relatives! And Chris and I always love being back in downtown Milwaukee. And to top it off while in Oshkosh we had the chance to catch up with old friends. Marie is still telling everyone how much fun it was to see them all. After a week it was flying back to West Palm Beach. There we continued some small projects and spending time with our Florida friends. The weather has been above normal temperatures in Florida, pretty much the same day to day. It should be the rainy season, and luckily we did have some rain, But not as much as needed, as we are still about 13” below normal.

But now back to some tradition for us. We are heading back to Oshkosh and on July 12th we check in to our Door County cottage. Marie and MJ will be with us, although we will be missing some important people this year. Jeff and Donna will be checking in at the same time so we look forward to some quality time with my high school friend. Also there will be a chance to see more of our oldest friends and reminisce about our old camping days. We always look forward to old favorite restaurants and bars, and creating some new memories.

MJ was in Florida this past week for a cruise with our friend Audrey. As long as she was there and needing to get back to Detroit, she is riding along with us on our trip back to the north. So on Sunday the 29th we headed out from Boynton Beach. Marie and MJ have never been to Savannah so that is our first stop. And since was the longest leg of our trip (6 hours) we are staying 2 nights. That allowed us to arrive the first night and be able to check in and have dinner at the Little Duck Diner. And to take a short walk around the hotel area in the historic district. Then the next day have one of my favorite breakfasts, take a carriage tour of some of the city, and do more sightseeing. A good meal and some smores on the patio to end the day, then next on to Asheville.

 

Sit back and relax

Happy Carriage Ride
