| The pier in Petoskey Michigan. We watch a softball game that overlooked the lake, walked a bit in the quaint town, bought sandwiches to go at an amazing little coffee shop and ate on the picnic bench at the pier. I had a BLT on a croissant with avocados and some delicious house spread. |
 |
| The waterfall was across the street from the pier and softball game. I am a sucker for waterfalls. |

| Vandy flying his kite at Lake Michigan, the UP side! |
 |
| I am also a sucker for sand and water and waves. I wasn't going to mention Vandy's kite took a dive in the lake, I went after it to help out. The sand shelf gave way and then I took a dive into the lake landing on my LEFT arm as my right arm saved the kite. It hurt, but I am all good!! |

| My father loved pasties. My grandmother used to make them for my grandfather and I think the recipe was passed down from my Great Grandmother Hrovatic (Cousin Jenny's Grandma). I could never get the hang of making them, but my brother Joe made them for my Dad occasionally. They are a dough based hot pocket stuffed with beef and potatoes and real LARD. I have heard of some people putting rutabaga or carrots. |

| Me holding up Mackinac Bridge. Vandy had me drive across as he HUNG out the window taking pictures. Yes, I was scared to death. |
 |
| We stayed at Boyne Mountain at one of vacation package condos. We did a few day trips that were perfect outings. This is the mountain that took my shoulder at Boyne. It looks a whole lot bigger with snow on it. lol |
 |
| Vandy and I at Sunset Park in Petoskey. The picture was taken right above the waterfall. It was an amazing vacation. Don't we look like the happiest couple ever? |
