We left our house in Texas late Tuesday afternoon and arrived back in Michigan Wednesday night. Our trip was relatively uneventful, with the exception of an 18-wheeler blowing out a tire right in front of us on I-40 in Tennessee. It made an extremely loud popping sound and sent debris swirling all over the freeway, but we managed to safely dodge the flying rubber. Other than that, the weather was good and the traffic was light along our route - until we got to Cincinnati. It seems as if there is always construction and some sort of jam between Cincinnati and Dayton. Always. The Michigan temperatures were well above normal today, but a cold-front will bring us much cooler weather this weekend. Jim and I are going to the Detroit Tiger game on Saturday night and the low is predicted to be in the mid-40s. Brrrrrr! I guess it is finally time to hang up the shorts & flip-flops and break out the blue jeans & sweatshirts!
A view of our little Texas palm tree that we planted in the spring. It has grown almost two feet. The orange lily-type things were in the yard when we bought the house.
The banana tree just keeps getting taller.
The yard from a different perspective.
