Dinner at Erins

Last weekend Jan, Beth and I were treated for a very special dinner at Jan's daughter, Erin's house. Erin gave her mom a dinner for Jan's birthday and Jan could ask 3 friends to join her. She picked Wendy, Beth and I. Wendy couldn't make it......we had appetizers with wine, followed by yummy lasgane, tossed salad, and garlic bread!!

Beth, Jan and I .....

After dinner, us girls played a few games of dominos.....and ended the night with Jan's favorite marble birthday cake!! Thanks Jan for including us for your birthday celebration!

Rogers Dam....on the Muskegon River...
Ludington State Park.......
where this deer was by the side of the road.....the trees were beautiful, autumn is here in Michigan.

Fall fun with Dave and Jan

Saturday afternoon we went on a bike ride with Dave and Jan. We were going to go 24 miles, but we settled for a 14 mile ride.....while riding we took a call from Nate.... It was a cool, crisp fall day, the colors are changing and the trail was not very hilly, which was great....
We stopped in Conklin, hoping to get a cup of coffee or something warm, but the only thing that was open was the local Irish bar...so we ended up having burgers and beer instead, oh well, ya gotta support the local ecomony.
Next to the bar was the Conklin chapter of Hell's Angels, so we think we could give them some competition, so we parked our "bikes" and tried to look tough...
Thanks Dave and Jan....it was a great afternoon.....Dave and I got our cameras out and took a few pictures -- they are posted below!
