Skip and Jacques

Today Jacques and Maryann came to visit. They drove us to Pere Marquette State Park Lodge less than ten miles from here. We had a great lunch in the lodge built sometime in the 1930s. It’s always good to rehash old stories and events from the past.

As they were returning us to the marina Mark and Liz Gibson were walking across the parking lot to visit us! That turned into drinks on the boat to pizza at the hotel they were staying at. After dinner Barb and I walked back to the boat about a mile away when Bruce and Chris returned from up north! Another drink some quick chit-chat and we turner in for the night!

All in all, a very full day spent with great people!
