Alpena

We left White Bear Lake yesterday at 2:00 PM. Our plan was to stop in Escanaba, Michigan to sleep. When we got to Escanaba it was 9:00 and all of the kids were asleep. It didn't make much sense to stop and wake all of the kids to go into the hotel, so we pressed on. As we were getting close to the Mackinaw Bridge I said to Amanda that the boys would be really upset if they missed the bridge. When we were about half way over the bridge Ben woke up and we heard Matthew say, "Bridge!" We arrived in Alpena at 2:00 AM.

This morning we woke up, had a cup of coffee and went outside. I love being outside in Alpena. It was a beautiful morning with low hanging snow clouds. The boys and I made a huge fire on the beach and walked by the water. Tricia, Alex and Davy come on Tuesday and we are looking forward to having them. More from Alpena to come later this week.
