Ray & Teri spent a lazy morning before were left for the picnic. It was at my brother-in-laws family farm that has been in his family more than 60 years. You will see a picture of it below. There is a 4 generation shot of Bailey, her Mom, Kris, me, & my Mom Peggy. There are also a pictures of a church where the hymn, "The Old Rugged Cross" was first sung, in 1913. There were 4 people in the choir. Tomorrow we will meet Tom, Betty, & Jim at the Gilmore.
The Millers & Jim left Flint about 8:30. It was a beautiful cool day. We traveled to Hastings MI and reserved rooms for the group. We then toured around town and had lunch at Richies Cafe. They had a great burger and were nice people. We went to the largest second hand store in the state just down the block. Then we went down to the public park on the Thornapple River. Pretty but mosquitos were everywhere. Then decided to make a run to the Gilmore because it was such a nice day. They were having a steam and tractor event.
Jim & Tom went to Charlton Park (a 1840's town - a Michigan historical site). All buildings furnished for living - such as a bank, school, barber, law offices, jail and a stagecoach stop.
Last we went to dinner at the Seasonal Grill and of course the evening is not complete without ice cream. This time at Mikes Monster Ice Cream (Mooville - voted best ice cream in Michigan).
