@ 1stimestar:

My intention's when I woke up, Sat. morning, the 21st, (my b/d) were to head north. Going where, I wasn't exactly sure at the time. Then it hit me, it didn't matter where, just get in the car, pack a bag and my violin and head out, make a quick stop at, Interlochen Art's camp, take a few photo's then head to the N. West side of Michigan to the Sleeping Bear sand dunes. When getting to the top of the dune's,  I wanted to do a video playing with Lake Michigan in the background, cool idea, eh, well it was, but long laid plan's of mice and men, that idea never materialized.

My first (unintentional) stop was the "Soaring Eagle" casino in, Mt. Pleasant, Mi where I figured I'd make my fortune, but walked out 25¢ in the hole, lol, I'm not much on gambling. Next was to to swing by my brother's in Gladwin, Mi. and visit him and that didn't happen either, instead I ended up spending three hour's trying to locate an old friend I haven't seen in thirty year's who live's in Harrison, Mi., only to find out he was in Florida at the time. By this time the day was shot, too late to head for the dune's so I just jumped on, I-75 and made the three hour trip back home.

Nothing went as planned, but guess what, I had a great time anyway and thank's again for all the b-day wishes.

Ken.
