Getting to know someone...


There is nothing like taking a long trip in the car together to help get to know someone.  When Troy and I originally planned this trip, I knew that it was going to be a lot to do with describing his life.  It has been just that so far.  All the time I have known him, he has told me things he has done and places he has been.  These have just been words in my head until now.  The images were unclear and hard to imagine.  Riding around and having him point out all that he has previously described and seeing it for myself gives a true image to carry with me forever, along with the approximately 435 pictures I have taken in only 3 days.  Today was the last day of history though. Tomorrow we are off to new things.  Adventures that don't involve his history.

I have to tell you that there are some people that have said traveling in a car for days on end is a terrible thing.  I am loving my vacation so far.  With the exception of needing a little stretch now and then, I am enjoying the ride thoroughly. :)  I haven't been singing or sleeping either Dave, well, maybe singing!

Just for my Mom here: We also visited a couple of cemeteries.  My mom would love this part for genealogy purposes.  "Hi Mom!"

Just for Stephen here:  We went to the best restaurant in Davison, called Whitey's.  We had Cod, and it was the best fish I ever ate in my life.  The tartar sauce was yummy like no other ever.  You would have been impressed.


Tomorrow is all about Henry Ford.
