We had a SHORT break in the rain last night, some of us ended up watching the race in the KOA dining room. They kicked us out at 9 PM, it started pouring again right after that, and the downpour lasted almost until morning. We had a real lake, and most of the tents and trailers were pretty damp inside. My Kwik Kamp held up well, I almost felt guilty for having a dry night!

Our first stop for gas and food. The parking lot was in the woods!

With Michigan came sunshine! It was a beautiful ride this afternoon.

Happy Campers!

A nice old building. Skid's garmin took up to a motel, but not the right one, so we're returning back through town to a Days Inn we say. It all worked out fine in the end.

A military display in downtown Grayling, Michigan

Sandy went in to find our room so we would know which window to park next to. It's a nice new Day's Inn.

Piper had a nice breakfast! I think Jazz took this picture.

We ate at 2 different "Coffee Cup" cafes this morning.

Sitting around waiting for the rain.........

Piper is ordering Pizza. Too wet to ride tonight.

The Phoenix just about went down in the mud until I put a rock under the stand. At least we're on sort of high ground. the trailer stayed totally dry inside. Some of the tents didn't fare as well...

Too Tall Tony just got back from lunch....He's still smiling............

Ooooh! This water's deep!

KT likes to play in puddles!

Jax is enjoying the shower.

From inside the pavillion at the KOA. this is going to be our WARB pasture tonight.

We had some slight flooding! I was in the laundry during this, "Wrong turn" took the picture.

KT and Sandy. It's good to see KT here and enjoying herself!

Not quite there, but the closest thing to "found food" for the trip so far. The food was all right, the prices were very good, and the service was fast and friendly. Even though I had my heart set on the Golden Coral, this was a good choice. It was suggested by Stella, Skid and Sandy's GPS. The ones you can see from this end are... Pat, Jax, Batman, Patricia, Skid, Sandy, Carlene, and Williewonka.

The table from the other end.

I was all ready for the Golden Coral this morning, but was voted down. Guess they aren't real popular out here. And, some of out group don't like "chain" places of any kind. So........Skid asked Stella (His Garmin GPS) for a family restaurant. A list popped up and we picked the Coffee Cup Cafe. We went the long way through Terra Haute, one of the routes supplied by Stella. It was perfect! We saw some neighborhoods we'd have never known were there. Interesting!

This business was across from the breakfast place. The neighborhood was a little on the shabby side, but the food was great!

Batman, Jax and Pat. Jax is giving insturctions on his GPS and other goodies.

These little guys were having a nice breakfast of "overflow" from the garbage can. The brown one is missing a leg. They were both very friendly.

Jim, Carlene, Willie and Phin.

Brillo brought a small antler to add to some of the other things that are at the memorial.

A fine resting place.

The cemetary overlooks a corn field and some beautiful wood lots.
