- camera-hunting: captured on film (up close!) sandhill cranes, a whitetail deer, and several rare and protected wildflowers
- book stores (many books were brought home)
- antique shops (more books found their way into our car)
- Steve bought his first pair of sandals. Ever. It was like giving a kid his first piece of candy. His verdict: he felt very "first century"
- Sara found the northernmost yarn shop in the lower penninsula - and brought home a nice souvenir
- Sara scrambling up an 80-degree slope covered in wet leaves while wearing flip flops and a skirt... all to get a close up photo of a rare lady's slipper flower in bloom!
- a strange phenomemon: several places of business closed on Wednesdays
It was a great time of relaxation and rejuvenation for the two of us - and the kids really enjoyed their time with the grandparents.
I will try to restrain Steve from posting more doodles of mine - perhaps I can coax him to post one of his own! THAT would be something (Steve is the only person on the planet I know of who designed and built an entire staircase on our deck without making one single diagram... all numbers and words... so left brained)
