We are settled in our nice hotel in Brighton, MI (it's about 20 minutes from Ann Arbor, due north). It's a nice place with free breakfast, a pool, a workout room and this one is in walking distance of Target, Home Depot, Chili's and IHop. We just got back from lunch at Ihop. We went there in honor of Vixmom. We both had crepes. Anthony had Crepes Florentine and I had Crepes with grilled chicken, bacon and white cheddar. They were both good though Anthony thinks the water tastes almost like well water. I don't know if younger people know what "well water" tastes like. It's a distinctive taste that I haven't tasted for decades! He asked for some lemon to put in the water and he said that helped. I didn't have water, I had coffee (I know, it's made with water but the coffee flavor overwhelms the well water flavor).
Anthony is taking a nap right now and I may quit the laptop and take a nap also. Most of the relatives (we're here for a reunion) are going to a baseball game tonight (The Detroit Tigers vs. some other team, I don't have a clue which one) and we're NOT going as you could probably tell from the aside. We have no interest in BB so we will hang out at the hotel and greet one of my sisters and a niece when they arrive from the airport.
The big festivities are tomorrow. According to the weather bug it's supposed to rain with lightning and thunder. There will be an outdoor canopy but if it does get bad I guess we will end up in the house.
We will stay on Sunday as well and head back to New York on Monday morning.
