Going to the chapel......


Picture above is Mary Alice, Don, Susan and I on the patio at Maiden Lake Supper Club Wednesday night. Good company, great views and great food. Susan had Cajun Shrimp and I had Ultimate Shrimp and Chicken Combo, both served over linguini (Yum!).

We left Don and Mary Alice behind after a nice conversation this morning. Great hosts. We had a nice relaxing time at their place and enjoyed their company. I never explained, but Don was an office-mate of Susan's off and on for 20 years or so down at the Navy base where they both worked.

Arrived in Marquette, Michigan about 4:00pm for the big wedding on Saturday. Nice little drive up from Wisconsin, about 170 miles, no big deal. We saw a few other cars (not many) and another deer on the highway. Stopped in Florence, Wisconsin for lunch at Barb's Cafe. Good old American food. Both of us tried Barb's Creamy Chicken with Rice soup. Really good, but it needed a little pepper to help it along. Susan had a garden salad along with it and I had an Egg Salad sandwich. I haven't had one of those in 40 years. Not bad.

Susan's sister, Carol is already here and so are Tony and Lilla (cousins from New York). We'll be having dinner with all the family members who are on board tonite. I'll keep you up to date about the festivities as we go along.
