Plymouth and Surrounding Areas






































At the left is the catamaran at St Ignace that
the site wouldn't let me show you in the last post.
It appears that the site is back in good order, so we can do a new post.

At the moment we are visiting Art & Bev at Ridge Town in Ontario, and we're using their PC
so I don't have access to our photos. We'll try those when we get back to Plymouth.

Yesterday Art drove us around in his new Mercury Marquis. You sure don't get a ride like
that in those SUVs and CUVs that are so popular now. The car was built in Canada, but he had to go to
the US to buy it. We toured around the area to some other towns. It appears that every square inch is planted with something and it is very lush.

We stopped at Oil City, the site of the first oil well in North America and the jerk lines that
were used to pump the oil. Nice little museum.

We met daughter Susan, who is definitely a chip off the old block.
We have played a few games of Joker. So far, we are even up.

Bev has been feeding us very well.
