Sixth day on the road - West Branch, Michigan

 74 degrees here near West Branch, MI at 9:50 pm Thursday.  Been a very busy day, seemingly.

Well, last night I couldn't get the computer to upload photos.  Finally went to bed and will try this morning - 6:64 am - 63 degrees and air quite still.  We have slept here with all windows and roof vents open the last few nights and real comfortable.  72 degrees inside the trailer right now. 

Tuesday morning breakfast with Dick & Deanne  Messer near Princeton, Minnesota.

Crossing the Mackinac Bridge from the Upper Peninsula on Wednesday 

Arriving at Darlene's room in The Brook Independent Living facility on the west side of West Branch on Wednesday.

Darlene has flowers inside and outside her room on the ground floor on west side of building.

Playing Kings Corner at Darlene's

With me driving, Darlene took us some 15 miles northwest of West Branch to a park she helped create many years ago.  There were 20-some deer there, including a couple albino deer.

Left through patio door.  The big bunch of flowers at the top is to the right of this picture.

We drove quite a ways on Monday on county roads without many towns.  I put 23.8 gallons of gas in the tank at one point..........the tank holds 24 gallon.  Have paid as high as $3.50 and as low as $2.79 on this trip.

Just started raining here at 7:15 am, Phyllis is up to the house looking at stuff Laureen wanted her to see.  We will go in to Darlene's (about 10 miles from here) for breakfast, some more Pegs and Jokers and then  we are going to drive west after having lunch in Darlene's room some 30 miles to near Houghton Lake and visit Bill Martin who used to spend winters in Kenwood.  Tomorrow morning, Saturday, we will start the some 350 miles to Columbus, Ohio and park at the Ohio State Fair Campgrounds while spending much of the week visiting daughter Michelle.

Later, LCM
