Hello Girls --
We've been here at Herman's cousin's house ... in Lakeville, MI. Their home is located on a hill and terraced down 3-4 levels down to the boating docks on a small lake (their Backyard) called Lakeville Lake. Very-very beautiful, so peaceful and relaxing sitting on the deck,, surrounded by trees. This has been truly a very beautiful and rewarding trip for Herman, visiting with cousins - cousin's children - more cousins-of-cousins .... getting filled in on all the immigration stories, papers and documents from his parents, aunts and uncles who all immigrated to the USA, way back to the very early 1900's. Will post some pictures when we get home. Leaving here on Tuesday - Aug. 23rd .... going to Frankenmuth, MI ..... and then to visit the "Sleeping Bear Dunes" National Park in Michigan (which was just named the Best National Park to visit in the country, on Good Morning America - TV this week). Then we will start making our way homeward towards Twin Falls, ID.
Patti: Your "Dog and Cat" Row is going to be really cute ..... everyone here is amazed how cute it is looking. Will have just a "teeny" bit of icing to put on it, when I get home and will post a picture or two of it,, so everyone can take a peek.

I knew I could count on you. Those little critters will be well traveled. Be sure the bears dont get them when you visit the National Park. Look forward to seeing the pictures when you have a chance to finish them when you get home.
