Wonderful Friends from Wisconsin!


We just had a great visit from some very dear and life long friends from Wisconsin.

Bruce and Cheryl arrived on Friday afternoon on the Badger Ferry in Ludington and we had an opportunity to spend 3 wonderful days enjoying the sights around Lake Charlevoix and getting caught up on the changes in our lives over the past 40+ years.

Cheryl was our best friend just after we were married in the late 60's in Wisconsin and over the years we lost contact with one another.

Two years ago we re-connected after a chance meeting at a shopping mall in Milwaukee and our friendship is stronger and more fun than ever!

We spent the last three days enjoying good food, boating & kayaking on the lake, golfing (high-lite was Bruce's Eagle on hole #1 of Ye Old Nine Holes) and of course touring the area including the wine country of Traverse City.

Bruce loves projects around the house so he helped along with Cheryl improve our window treatments with the addition cornice boards. They look beautiful and give the room a finished look.

Last night was a beautiful night for a sunset cruise on the lake. The water was like glass and all the stars were out in their glory. We even got to see a couple of shooting stars--awesome!


This morning we had an early ride to Ludington to board the ferry back to Wisconsin.

Bruce & Cheryl will return next year when they can stay a little while longer. We sure enjoyed their visit and plan to see them in October in Wisconsin.

Bye, and love you guys!
