Holland, Michigan (3 days there...)

We spent three days with Lucille and Stewart in Holland, MI while spending the three nights in our lil' tin tent. We didn't want to make work so we slept and had breakfast in our traveling home before joining family. Had a good time catching up with them and their children and grandchildren. We met my niece, Piper's husband, Ray and had a great time getting to know him. Piper and Ray have three cats and two dogs -( And Ray has two nearly grown children from a previous marriage.) The three cats and two dogs are an interesting mix-remind me to tell you all about them at some point! We drove to Grand Haven where Piper works and explored the channel from Lake Michigan into GH. After a great lunch in an outdoor patio restaurant along the channel we explored the pier and light house at Grand Haven Point. When we got back to Holland we were invited to have dinner at Piper and Ray's-so we got to play with the animals and we also shared some of the photos taken on this journey And Ray showed us photos of a mission trip to Guatamala that he took with a church group and his son and daughter. Lucille took me to her therapy pool to soak in very warm water, and then to the Holland Farmer's market which is great. Stewart took Hank to see the Corvair he's restoring, then we all went to Tunnel Park and hiked up the dune after experiencing the tunnel. Hank and Stewart went to Beer Church with Ray and some of his cronies. All in all a good time was had by all. But guests get tiresome after awhile, so we figured it was time to move along. Next stop is at Bob and Betty Leonards in New Carlisle, OH.
