Day 47

Michigan Bound

Jun 22, 2013, 11:59 AM

This morning we are on the move from the Columbus, Ohio area to the Ann Arbor, Michigan area. This is just a stop over on our way to the northern part of Michigan and eventually on to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. It wasn't going to be much of a drive to our stop for the night so we didn't hurry this morning. It was nice, we got a good night's sleep, we woke up and at a leisurely pace we got ready to go. We are driving down the road, not more than two miles from the campground we have just left, I'm talking to Kim on the phone and Steve asks me did you see where they were doing the car wash? Well of course I hadn't. I'm on the phone with Kim! So, Akio and Geo had just walked into the house at Kim's and Steve wants to know where the car wash is so I hung up with Kim. We made a right and came into the parking lot of the Tractor Supply and there is his car wash. It's KIDS doing a fundraiser for school or church or God only knows. Well Mr. Crazy here pulls up and asks them how much to do the RV and car. Oh my gosh!!!!! What fun!!!!! The kids were having a blast washing the RV, the parents were loving it, I didn't have to do it so I was in heaven, and it took maybe, MAYBE, 30 minutes. So we made a sizable donation to the Westland High School Band Boosters and our RV is CLEAN!!!!! Yeah!!!! 

Thanks Westland Cougars, we appreciate it.

WOW!! I can see I'm going to have to be generic on my blog, if that's what you want I can do that. Lets see it might look like this. . .

Leaving Ohio

On our way to Michigan 

Don't know what we are going to do there

Got the RV and car washed

See, I can do generic. I thought you might want more than that, but we have one complaining they didn't get a picture with Spanky. Well I'm sorry, it wasn't my fault you couldn't handle a zoo for the full day. Spanky was there, I got his picture at the sign. I was there with not one but two cameras, I've got the pictures to prove it. I wanted to take pictures but I wasn't going to force anybody to stay past their comfort. Then we have another one telling the poor child she is going to be thrown under the bus. I get heart breaking pleas to spare mommy. Oh my gosh, poor Geo, don't you worry sweet thing, I was kidding. 

Yeah right like I'm going to change how I do the blog. Steve is loving this, instead of me cluttering up his world with all of my crazy ramblings, saying any old thing that pops into my head, now I write them all down and send them out into the world to pester everyone else. God, my life is good!!!!! So HA HA, like it or not, the blog will continue to be my ramblings. Naa na naa na naa naa!!!!!!

Riding Along

So far things have been pretty uneventful. We are taking pretty much the same route we did yesterday. So all is well. I guess I should share the photos I got from Kim and Catherine of their projects. The skirt came out adorable and the wind chimes that Catherine made look so cool. Good job both of you. 

At The Campground Just In Time

We got to the campground and got setup just as the thunder started and the rain was soon to follow. So this is going to be a nice quiet night and I figured I'd get the next installment of the Zoos Across America Retirement Trip, starring Steve & Ruth anne Baker, out on the early side so I can be done for the night.
