    Family Fun in South Haven, Michigan: What to See, Do, and Eat with Kids

    February 9, 2020 /

    If you are in the Midwest, a fantastic beach vacation can be found within a days drive to one of Michigan’s beach towns. We return year after year for a short beach trip to one of these charming destinations along Lake Michigan.

    Family Fun in St. Joseph, Michigan – What to See, Do, and Eat with Kids

    January 26, 2020 /

    COLORADO AND UTAH TRIP 2019 – DAY 11

    January 18, 2020 /

    It’s always sad when this day arrives. That is, the day that marks the start of the end of the vacation. We loaded up the Merc after filling up on some hotel breakfast and headed north from Moab on scenic Highway 128. We made a brief stop again in Castle Valley for one last view as the sun rose.
