I’m sure that you have seen pharmaceutical advertising in doctor’s offices on everything from tissues to note pads This one should get first prize:

I  e-mailed it to my Japanese doctor friend; he e-mailed back: “If light stay on more than 4 hour, call erectrician.

(This made me laugh out roud)

• It was great seeing Mom, Beth, and Nancy on this trip. Erin feels the same. She talked about them repeatedly on the way home.
• I enjoyed the variety of places for breakfast out. My favorite was the Windmill Cafe in the downtown district. Biscuit and gravy with eggs on top!
• The week was not ideal for the beach, but Erin and I did it anyway and she had a ball. Kids just never seem to feel cold water, but I spent time in the lake too.
• The extra passenger, Steven, was nice for me. We talked when we weren’t listening to what we have on our phones. I did 2.75 books and I have no clue what he listened to. Erin did the iPad thing and she was well entertained on the trip.
• We met Julie and Anni at Sam’s Club in Holland both times and it was nice seeing them again.
• I took Erin to Dutch Village and she loved it. I can see her insisting on returning there next year. The ferris wheel was her favorite.
• I’m sure if I sit here and dwell on it I could come up with other shit to say, but I’m ready to head out for the day with Nina and I need to check the Jeep and see if it is habitable again.

Made it home.

Interesting conversation.  Hi Ed.

• Well, we’re in Michigan.
• Erin and Mom are getting reacquainted nicely.
• I’m relaxing and taking pictures of Erin.
• Steven is with his mother & Julie.
• I haven’t received a call for rescue so I assume all is well.
