Southern Michigan

June 21 … Thurs – We got the sad and tragic news this morning of the passing of our nephew Jason. We’re making plans to get to Houston now.
June 20 … Wed – We decided to get the bikes down and take a ride on a 33 mile bike trail. Not all 33 miles, of course. We estimated we rode about 14 miles, however. We packed a lunch and ate at a little league ball park in the little town of Alamo, MI. Needless to say, we were tired that evening.
June 19 … Tue –We drove into Kalamazoo today to do a bit of shopping. The first stop was Walmart where we bought 4 new tires for the Tracker. It took longer than expected so we walked across a main street and had a Subway lunch and then a trip to a Manards store which is a cross between a Walmart and a Home Depot. We then went to a mall where Dixie bought tennis shoes and I bought some sandals. After dinner, we met a nice couple at the park who had a dog that closely resembled our Rusty, our dog we had for almost 14 years.
