Weekend Activities a little late posting.

Memorial Day weekend was the beginning of the summer season but as you can see from our picture below, it was a little chilly here.  Saturday we went to Northport with friends and they had a car show.  We walked around and checked out the show.  
 This car reminded me of Leo's Mustang which was his first car.  He told me that his car was the same color but it had one black stripe down th middle and it was not quite as old as this one.  It was fun to walk along the water and look at the old cars anyway.  The sun was shining and we enjoyed catching up with friends.
 On the way touring Leelanau County, we stopped for lunch at an out of the way diner and then stopped by an old church where they were having a quilt show.  I had heard about this show and the guys agreed to wait while Joan and I went in and checked out the quilts.  Most of the quilts were hand quilted by the ladies of the church and quite like the quilts that the 'Ladies Aide' would do in the church in Coleman.  It is nice to know the tradition still lives in small communities around N. Michigan.
 Bud with Bill and Joan.  Bill lived next to me when I moved into my first house so I have known him for a long time. So, lunch, quilts and cars.  That is how we spent our afternoon.
In the evening we went out and celebrated a birthday with some other friends.,  The couple in the middle are both retiring this year.  Larry has an office in the same building as Bud and his wife Kathy is retiring from teaching.  A new adventure is in store for both of them with the retirement ahead.

Sunday and Monday we were pretty quiet here around the house, doing chores and some projects for me.  The boat is not in the water yet and the weather has been cold so just working around the house was good for us.

Now you can see why I was a little delayed in posting this week, not a lot going on.  The hot weather has finally arrived here and Bud just got the AC ready to turn on. School is winding down and the trees are greening up so time goes on.

  2. I have more confidence than ever, feel absolutely great,
    and wake up everyday with a smile on my face.
    Then the skinny guy finds weight gainers and tries them, or some other worthless supplement,
    and never really understands why he is not big and muscular like the other
    guys at the gym. 'Tis the season to gain weight, from holiday parties to cookie exchanges to experimenting with new recipes for Thanksgiving like buttery biscuits stuffed with five kinds of cheese.

  3. After I initially left a comment I appear to have clicked the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and now whenever a
    comment is added I receive 4 emails with the exact same comment.

    Perhaps there is an easy method you are able
    to remove me from that service? Many thanks!

  4. If there is still a tie, the records remain in their original sequence from before the sort.

    This step also involves threading the braid’s tag end through the eye of the
    hook. For more information on bow ties, and how to wear them and tie them, check out where you will also find a fabulous range of bow tie styles and patterns for you to choose from.
