Over the weekend we went camping (probably just like a bunch of you!) and boy did we have a blast! We ended up at the River Farm Campground in Pentwater, MI.
It was a nice relaxing campground in which we didn't really have the big Labor Day crowds.
We found a great Mexican resturant (we love Mexican food), I found a bottle of my favorite wine at a local food mart (2005 Tintara Shariz), and
Zach caught a couple fish while I caught a rather annoying turtle!
The funny thing about our big fishing expedition was that while Zach and I labored for hours to catch our "big" fish, Kim walked down to our super-secret fishing spot, cast in a line and within 10 seconds caught the biggest fish of the weekend...and boy was it HUGE!
One of the coolest things about our Airstream is the fact that we get hang out in an area and really get a chance to visit as opposed to just "driving through" (As well as just hangin' out in the Airstream).
We really enjoy visiting a town and getting to know it, not just visit the local tourist attractions (however, we enjoy doing that also), but visiting the places off the beaten path. For example, on this trip we knew about the historic village of White Pine. And we enjoyed the Lumberjack breakfast and historic baseball game between the Ludington and Hartwick Pines...However, we didn't know about the great Mexican restaurant in Hart, Mi called La Fiesta...great food! I guess you have to have great food if you are going to last over 20 years.
Well since Summer is almost over and Zach starts school on Tuesday I guess we won't be taking anymore trips...NOT! In fact we have already scheduled a trip in a couple weeks...Oktoberfestin Frankenmuth, MI...great food, great beer and great fun! (All with Wiener dog races!)...I can't wait!
In the meantime, I will begin to polish the Surfin' Safari...stay tuned...
