Starting in a good place Green Bay!

 The first Sunday. 

The morning started early at Green Bay, Wis.  Home of the PACKERS.  I told Doug that it would appear that the wide-open highway and they are huge I would suggest because of Football, was made for just the three cars that I saw for some time.  The view out the window was trees, trees, trees.  Lots of trees.  That went with long stretches of road with nothing but trees.  That was until we got to Baraga with the first citing of Lake Superior.  The lake for some was hiding with fog so the view was a bit limited to no more than 6 feet at the edge of the lake.  The road took us inland for a while and when we saw Superior again, she was up to all the beauty that is hers.  Even an ore boat was part of the view.  We discovered that the sand once again covered the beach at Great Sand Bay.  It was gone for the last 3 years.  Sand can move on and off the beaches depending on the lake.

                                                    2022 Camp Site, Copper Harbor, Mi.

 

We arrived at Copper Harbor at noon.  That’s an earlier time for us.  The kids were busy moving campsites which makes them nearer to ours.  Scheduling was a bit of a problem this year.  Our camping sites are separated by a site in between us but we’re close enough for all to be good.

                                                     This is Eli.  The youngest of the three.  

Doug and I started setting up the dining fly and the kids eventually joined us when their moving was more or less finished.  The tent was their assignment which once again and was masterfully completed. 

 

Lots to talk about and a whole lot of laughing nearly split my sides with hurt.  

And Adam is my favorite grandchildren –
ADAM IS THE BEST AND HE IS AMAZING (This, all about Adam, is his amazing addition.)All five are my favorites.  

 

The weather is a bit cooler than Indy.  I’m wearing a sweater jacket, Doug has his flannel jacket on and coffee fills what’s missing.  Soup and crackers for supper and there will be a fire in the evening with giant marshmallows to add to the entertainment. 

It’s been a good day starting a wonderful two weeks in the UP again.

This time I hope I'm back for a very long time.  The computer with pictures is finally a go and all the excitement of Sunday is over.   I don't know if I've recovered yet.  There are a few more days before the next Sunday.   For those few who don't know it was another hospital stay of a couple of days.  And it all started in the pew at church with a pass out  seizure type of thing. I think something to do with high sugar perhaps.  The whole service came to a halt for a while.  How embarrassing with a carry out by the good old EMTS.   Lots of tests I guess.  I don't remember a thing until Sunday evening with a trip into a scan machine.  I got released Tuesday and today I visited my primary care doctor for answers and I'm pretty well satisfied.  Two days in bed have really made me wobbly so I'm pretty careful about moving around.  It should get better soon.  I won't be driving for a while because of the seizure.  That's a huge bummer.  The seizure medi

 A day that's been a little slow.  I guess that's OK now and then.   The morning included a yucky bird feeder clean out.  I got tired of looking at it and it was almost empty so there was my chance.  The blue bird was seen often and the pair of red bellied wood peckers enjoyed the suet.  I saw on facebook a guard that is easy to put together to keep sparrows out of the blue bird house.  It's worth a try made with wire and fishing filaments and fishing weights.  I need a wire cutter first.                                                                    For a while both Mr. and Mrs. were visiting.  Then it was to the sewing machine.  The day produced three bags.  I need to get the collection on their way to Michigan.  I made a couple for the Carmel grandsons.  The pace was slowed with a finger cut with the rotary cutter.  What a bleeder I produced.  I will say this is the first slash I gave myself in more than ? years of sewing.  I think it's time for a fresh dressing

Kimmy did it again.  She guided me to the spot where now there is a change made in the blog settings  allowing comments.  If you had a google account you could do that already.  At least  that's what I think I'm reading.  So comment away when you want to.  Will be fun.                             I'm looking forward to a whole bunch of different zinnias this summer.   Finger report.  It's doing fine with a major clean up today. One reason for no butterfly but a small club is to pad the site.  Typing is improving.  The day brought more sewing with four more bags completed and one waiting for velcro which should arrive tomorrow via Amazon.  Another package of D rings should be included to finish up a few cover ups.  It's been a busy sewing season with some new challenges that keep the sewing room interesting.  I must dig through my fabric for more options.   Lots of meal worms are disappearing again.  Most of the time it's because the pair of Blue Birds are having
