We left home on Saturday morning and arrived in the Upper Peninsula that afternoon. We have been spending time at our little beach on Lake Superior, which is actually quite big this year due to the low water levels of the Great Lakes. We have also visited with my cousin who is vacationing here from California. We have eaten pasties, gone shopping, gambled, and driven to all of our favorite local haunts. On Tuesday, we dropped Jim off at a tiny, nearby airport, so he could get to Calgary for work on Wednesday. The rest of us will arrive back home on Thursday. . .
. . . which will be delightful because then I will again have to deal with my mother-in-law. Jim called her on Monday, only to have her yell at him because "she doesn't have a telephone in her hospital room." Jim looked baffled, and replied in a very irritated voice, "What are you talking to me on?" She has also been demanding money, so she can "pay these waitresses" and "buy some cigarettes." Since Jim's sister, Debbie, has been forced to spend more time with her, she is finally seeing how confused Bev really is. The car keys are hidden and assisted living homes are being scrutinized. Can't wait to get back to all of that. Not.
Anyway, I will post some trip pictures as soon as Adam helps me load them onto this laptop!
