July 21, 2007 Grand Blanc and Midland, MI



We took our grandson to Midland to see the Class A Midland Loons play baseball. As we approached Midland it began storming hard and a tornado warning was sounded for the Midland area. We turned around and returned the next day. As we stood in line waiting to purchase our tickets, the family in front of us said "Oh, look. We go the last tickets." We lost out again. We were not slated to see them play, I guess. Gotta order some in advance for next time.

Today, while sitting on the porch planning our itinerary for next month to the east to see Civil War battle sites, I heard a commotion coming from the area of our bird feeder as birds' wings flapped and squirrels ran. I looked up and a lone turkey was coming out of the woods to the area of the feeder. This loner has been hanging around lately and we never saw other creatures flee before it before.

We hope to meet my sister and brother-in-law in the area of Johnstown, PA and then go on to Harpers Ferry, WV, Antietem, MD, Gettysburg, PA and maybe Fredericksburg, VA area. Then on to Goshen from wherever we are in this journey.
