Back in the North Country

We got back to Leland on Sunday and spent the evening with the Goodfallows for Mother’s day. This morning we took a ride to Wheeler Road to check on progress with construction. The electric company was finishing the hook-up for temporary electric service and the masons were finishing setting up forms for the basement and garage footings so that they can start pouring cement on Tuesday. Nancy got her first look at the property since last winter and was pleased with the way things are shaping up. Later we drove over to Maple City and talked to the Post Office about setting up a mail box at the new home site. We hope to do that tomorrow so we can start receiving mail there.
We had a great weekend in Romeo and camped at Mike’s house. All the kids came by to celebrate Mother’s day on Saturday and we got to visit with some friends as well. Thanks everyone for the wonderful  time.
We are now camped at Platte River National Campground at the Sleeping Bear National Lakeshore and did some bike riding and walked the beach for a while before dinner. This is a really nice campground and the sites are spread out quite well. Only one loop out of four is open and it is about a third full. We had a nice clear day today in the high sixties. Hope the weather holds out for us. My internet reception is poor here so pictures will have to wait for now.
Hope everyone is well.
