Michigan

August 26
Tom checked the tires this morning as he often does and another one was low.
Since this is the second one he decided it should be checked. Maybe we had run
into a bunch of nails or something. Turns out this one was disintegrating on the
inside. Thank you all for praying for our safe travel. We know the Lord is
answering your prayers and putting angels around and even under, it seems, our
vehicles. A new tire was purchased, installed and we were on our way again.
Today was a day of travel. Pleasant though, because we were driving through lovely farm country with rolling hills. Farm scenes are so peaceful with the
cows, sheep or horses lazily munching on grass and crops taking in the sunshine.
We ended up driving along the shore of Lake Superior which looks like a Sound
rather than a lake. All you can see is water clear to the horizon.
Now we are in Ashland, Wisconsin in the city park on the lake. It is beautiful.
Weather continues to be great, in the 80's with a breeze. We got the next to last
spot here so it is crowded, but doesn’t feel that way. They have the spots arranged well. We ate dinner out on the picnic table facing the lake.
This is Saturday, August 28 and we suspected there would be garage sales and a
Farmers market. We were right and we even found an estate sale. Some interesting stuff. Tom commented on how in an estate sale you are looking at the life of someone. It does give you a little insight into who they were and what they liked.
This town also has a Walmart which is always helpful to pick up those things you
forgot. We found a church for tomorrow and a place to park the rig while we go.
That can be a problem. Another lovely evening. We are so relaxed. Our trips have always been about a destination. This one has a destination as usual, but we are more into the trip. It's so much fun and wonderul.

Church was great this morning. Good worship and a super good message.
This town has a series of amazing murals. After church we walked through town looking at them and taking pictures. Another quick stop at Walmart and off to
Michigan. We landed in Ishpeming and will stay a couple of days.
