BEAR Crossing????

Eeeeeek!

Bears are scary. I'm glad I didn't go if there were bears around.

Mom said she only saw this sign, on M115 between Buckley and Cadillac. She didn't see any bears!

Whew...

World's Biggest Cherry Pie

I think I would like cherry pie!

The world's largest cherry pie was made up north, near Traverse City, cherry capital of the world. Mom got to see the memorial for it. Next time I will make her take MY picture in front of it.

Because DARN IT MOM - I WANT TO GO UP NORTH TOO!

The 45th Parallel

Sigh...

Another cool thing my Mom went and did without ME! The 45th parallel, which is half way between the equator and the north pole, crosses 31 between Elk Rapids and Charlevoix. Mom stopped and got a picture.

Actually, I don't know why I care because I don't know what the equator even is and why would anyone care about a pole in the north???

Lake Michigan

The last time Mom went to Lake Michigan, in September, she let me go too. This time she didn't. I wanted to go for all the good eats up there, but BRRRRRRR, Lake Michigan looks way too cold for me.

Cousin Bill's Park

I know, I haven't posted in a long time. But I've been very busy finishing up the Scotty and taking 11 days off to go all the way down to Florida and back again.

This weekend my mom left me with Grandpa and Grandma and headed up north with Cousin Emily and b/f Jeremie.

That sucks! I wanted to go too.

Here's a picture of mom at Cousin Bill (Leonard)'s roadside park. Bill was an engineer for the Dept. of Transportation and when he retired, they named this park for him. It is on 31, north of Elk Rapids, MI. YAY Cousin Bill. Maybe next time *I* can see the park too!
