Weeirrrrd Monday

I was looking forward to an early morning get-together with Juliette and went out to the car to find a cold, dead battery. Suzu had not been driven since last Wednesday, but very unusual to have ANY problems with start up. No cell phone for J - knew she was probably enroute anyway....It was early enough that I could borrow Jill's vehic and still get to a very quick breakfast and be back in time for Jill to get to work. My plan was to have the AARP roadside service rescue me in the meantime...(deja vu, Anne?)

So J and I are speed talking as we have a quick catchup over coffee and toast and suddenly J spots a mouse on the floor of the restaurant near our booth. I HATE mice!!!!! and especially in the restaurant where I'm eating. The waitress was alerted and she non-chalantly plopped a styrafoam cup over the nasty little creature and carried him off to the kitchen of all places!

To say the least that was a major creepy feeling - don't think I'll be eating at this place any time soon if ever again in my lifetime. YUCK!

"Car Rescue" guy Scott, was promptly at our door by the time I returned and easily revived my ride. I was only 20 minutes or so late.

That AARP roadside assistance is the BEST.....Gregg and I have used it a half dozen times or so and they've always been prompt and service friendly.

Looking forward to another interesting day tomorrow!

Day Four of Vacation

We went to the Frederick Meijer Gardens
today. Jill and Linnea came with us.
This is a fun water area Great Lakes Garden.
Supposed to look like the Great Lakes
water system.

This is a beaver den.

This is a tired Nea.


On the way home we stopped at the
El Burrito Loco at Knapps Corner.
We ate some good Tex-Mex food
and had a nice visit.

Misc. Shots, Hi Anne, #2

4th Of July Fun

An apple and cherry pie for our late afternoon
picnic. Jill had to work until 3PM, so we waited
until 4'ish to eat. Janet and the Lopez family
joined us.

One of our neighbors and MJ's friend, Lola
dropped these flowers off.

The cook was late in setting the fire, so we
had a nice amount of time to visit :~)

Marcos taking very good care of his cousin
Linnea. Thanks to Checo for being the
beast of burden here.
