Friday's migration to Port Huron


You've really planted roots in your campsite
when your decorations include bales of hay,
pumpkins, mums and gourds


We left the Addison Oaks Campground where some of the "permanent" campers have decorated for the fall.



After a meeting with Dave Clark to discuss Linda's retirement savings, we signed in to the Port Huron KOA where we used to have Family Camps with Celtic Cross friends.  It's been expanded and there are many, many people here this weekend because they're having a Halloween celebration.  There are kids everywhere, some in costumes.

Gary and Shirley Rhody took us to dinner and then invited lots of friends from the Port Huron church to visit at their house afterward.  We had fun visiting with "old" friends.











We decided to spend some time Saturday afternoon revisiting favorite haunts in Port Huron: The Raven Coffeehouse, the Maritime Visitor's Center on the St Clair River. a parking lot under the Blue Water Bridge (both for Great Lakes Freighter watching) and then a new place to us, the Thomas Edison Museum in the old railroad station. (Lots of walking, Holly.)  A beautiful fall day.

The shipping in the St Clair River is great entertainment.
