Vacacay... What a beginning

We got to the cottage late Friday/early Saturday morning. I was pleased with the timing we made actually.  We decided to just get the CPAPS and our pillows and we would unload the rest of the car after we woke up on Saturday morning.  We get to the door that we had the key for and ooops... it didn’t fit.  Dubs tried and it still wouldn’t work.  So, we walked back to the car and then tried another door.  Nope!  We called my mom to see if she gave us the right keys and while I was talking with her, Dubs notices on the other side of the tape of the sad attempt of a key chain, it said, Uncle Moe.  Hmmm...  We’re supposed to be staying at Uncle John’s.  So, now we are 300+ miles from home and no keys to get into the cottage.

Luckily Uncle Moe lives on the same lake and is a night owl.  I called over there and Aunt Janet answered the phone. She invited us to stay with them and we couldn’t have been more grateful.  We didn’t get a great night sleep and we only ‘slept’ for about 5 hours, but hey, at least it was a bed. 

We managed to get in touch with somebody that has access to the house and she gave us the garage door opener and we’ve made it to our home away from home. Ready to enjoy our 2nd honeymoon.  That’s what I’m calling it and I hope it stays that way.

Vacation bound

So we’re going to Michigan tonight. Cannot wait to get on the road.

I can only imagine how relaxing it will be with just Dubs & I. We haven’t been on a vacation for a week away from home together w/out any family being around until now.  Even on our honeymoon, my folks were across the street and down the road.  Granted, that’s what I get for having a destination wedding that they paid for. lol 

I am bringing books to read as I sit on the glider in the sun room, or to read while lounging on the boat.  I may even get a puzzle to work on in the dining room - just because I can. 

I will be posting pictures when I get back. There’s no internet service there, so they will have to wait, but we will be seeing the Ausauble River, Lumberman’s Monument, Lake Huron and if we feel like it, we may travel to Traverse City.

The kids, Roxy & Ollie, are at my folks and even though we’ll miss those little fur balls, we know they will be spoiled @ Nana and Papa’s.
