Mum, Pop, my new friends Bruce and Mary Jane and me went on a three day vacation to the UP of Michigan. Bruce and Mary Jane have a Mustang just like Mum and Pop’s except it’s the prettiest blue you ever saw.
We had such a great time. We got to drive most of the time with the tops down. I love that part with the wind blowing in my hair and all the wonderful smells.
We got to drive along Lake Superior – that is the biggest lake I ever saw. I even saw a big, big ship off in the distance. Pop said it was probably a freighter ship. I wonder what it would be like to live on one of those ships for a little while? I think I’d like to do that. There is so many things I want to do but so little summer left to do it in.
We saw this really big Indian. Bruce and Mary Jane took our pictures in front of it but it was so big you can’t even see where I am. I felt so little standing next to it. It looked like a real Indian to me just really really big.
This is a picture of us eating dinner. I’m not in this picture cause Mum let me take the picture. I did good didn’t I? Mum said because I did so good, I can get my own camera.
One night we got to stay at the a Bed and Breakfast called “The Listening Inn“. If you’re in the area of Crystal Falls, MI, you have got to stop and spend the night. Carol and Leslie Kufahl are wonderful hosts and made us all feel so welcome. This was definitely a high point of the trip for us. This Inn was hand crafted from logs and was beautiful, warm and welcoming. Our rooms were great and right out the sliding glass doors of our room we watched bears come to feed on corn.
You have to look close to see him. Later we watched even a bigger bear come to eat. I stayed far away because I’m so little .
For breakfast Carol and Leslie made us a breakfast of fruit, muffins, juice, egg bake and toast made from her homemade bread and homemade jam. Pop said we can come back again and I’m glad because this place was really nice.
Bruce and Mary Jane, thanks for being my friend. I had so much fun and I can hardly wait until we get to go some place together again. In the Mustangs of course.
