"Eh!"



Having left the comfortable sedentary lifestyle we had with Marisa's new family we quickly set out for beer and long hours on the road(not in that order). The east coast of Michigan is slow going when you are in the rain and trying to stop at as many places as you can to sample fudge. We chose not to spend a rainy day on Mackanac Island even though it was the single most recommended sight seeing destination in Michigan, next time. We did follow Beverly's tip to check out the light houses, the rain meant fewer crowds (perfect).

Unfortunately for us fall arrived in Canada just 24 hours before we did. Word is, the day before we entered the country it was warm, sunny and the trees were green. We left Michigan on a blistery blustery Thursday and it did not stop raining until Saturday evening. Its colder than shit, windy and the trees are starting to turn beautiful fall colors.

The weather did not affect our ability to have a good time at the wedding we went to. It was our crappy attitudes and poor communication that almost sank the wedding reception fun, almost. We had a great time at the reception; we ate, we drank, we danced, we chatted up Canadians, we stole wine, cheese and veggies(yes vegetables) from the reception, and we slept in the wedding hall parking lot. The back of the truck seems to be the way to go after a wedding, this is the third time and it's getting better every time.

It was Marisa's birthday yesterday, eh. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARISA!!!!
