The trip so far….
July 22, 2009Sioux Falls, SD to Keystone, SD
July 21, 2009A long day indeed. Today we saw as much of South Dakota as we could (and we will see a little more tomorrow). We started with an early morning walk around Falls Park in Sioux Falls. I suggest everyone who is ever close come to the falls. Bring a picnic as well. Its a great […]
Fox Lake to Sioux Falls, SD
July 20, 2009Today we decided to take a travel day. After not driving for a few days we were missing it and traveled from Fox Lake through Wisconsin, Minnesota and arrived in South Dakota. While I am sure there are great places north of route 90 in both WI and MN we decided to not spend a […]
Fox Lake IL
July 19, 2009Today Susan invited her friends over to her parents house. We had beer, wine, pizza, and lots of kids. The weather in the midwest has been unseasonably cool (I had a long sleeve shirt on in the morning), but luckily the weather finally got warm enough to go for boat rides and actually get in […]
Chicago, IL
July 18, 2009Greg and Melissa Karczewski’s Wedding Today was one of our “hub dates” that we planned a lot of this trip around. Wedding in Chicago. My old good friend Greg from gradeschool (1st grade on) was getting married. Susan went to Jacob’s baseball game in the morning while I took the train downtown to the wedding. […]
Fox Lake, IL
July 17, 2009Today Susan and I actually spent time apart for the first time in 3 weeks. With a sad heart I drove Susan (in Dad’s Blue Corvette) to Great America for fun with her sister’s family. I heard a good time was had by all. As for me I stayed home with Stu and worked. In […]
Howell to Fox Lake IL
July 16, 2009We woke up slowly at the Mast residence to yet another home cooked meal (we might move in permanently). After our slow start, we loaded up the truck and headed to Illinois. We arrived in Ill and met with our Niece and Nephew. Stu was of course a big hit and Jacob/Kelly got to throw […]
Howell MI
July 15, 2009Today we got to spend the day with Mike Mast. Kathie and Mike started our day with a home cooked breakfast. We were moving a little slowly from the drinking the night before, but we eventually made it out of the house and headed to the Ann Arbor Art Festival. Stu got to go with […]
Marcellus to Howell MI
July 14, 2009We spent another great day on the lake. More of the same enjoying of the water. We would really like to thank Pat and Diane Battaglia (have I mentioned that all spelling on this blog is bad) for the great stopping point on our trip. We really enjoyed the company and the fun on the […]
Marcellus MI
July 13, 2009Everything you wanted to do on a lake. We went swimming, kayaking, tubing, skiing, jumped on the lake trampoline, laid in the sun, ate good food, laughed, and threw the ball to the dog (CONSTANTLY). Besides getting a little sun burned the day was a complete success and everyone enjoyed a great lake day. We […]
