Blog time 0830 Thursday sitting in breakfast room at Fairfield Inn, Gaylord
Wednesday and today we travel to Gaylord. We started out at 0630, stopped at Panera for coffee and bagels and then headed out, sort of. We got on the freeway when Nancy noticed that she had forgotten her ipad. We turned around and returned home to retrieve it.
The drive to Gaylord was uneventful. Parts of US 131 and US 27 have raised their speed limits to 75. I think the jury is still out on this move.
Arrived Gaylord about 1030, checked into the Fairfield Inn. Fairfield has only been open several months and it shows. Everything is new and clean.
We met my sister, Helen, and headed to downtown Gaylord. We bought our tickets to Alpenfest for Nancy and me. I also bought AJ a carnival ride ticket. AJ has two new friends, Kennedy who is Helen’s grand daughter and Emma who is Shirley Short’s grand daughter. Shirley is Helen’s husband Don’s daughter. The girls immediately started enjoying the rides.
We had lunch downtown. After all the rides we headed back to Helen’s. AJ will be spending the night at Helen’s with her two new cousins.
Nancy and I returned to Fairfield to unpack and take a nap. We had dinner at Helen’s. She had a taco bar. Also in attendance were Don Crandall’s two nephews from Homer, MI and a niece from CO.
We spent an enjoyable evening talking and drinking. We left AJ with her friends and returned to the Inn about 2100. A long enjoyable day.
