Lake 4th of July 2017

The lake is a beautiful, peaceful place we go whenever we can.  On this 4th of July weekend.  It was serene.  Until the darkness comes and most of the neighbors started with their fireworks.  We love watching the show having fun watching it from around the lake and across the street.  The show started from Thursday until the Tuesday night which was the 4th.  It was spectacular , we enjoyed watching it.  Except for Bandit.  The poor dog don't like it at all.   He would pant and try to hide himself in any small room/area he could find.  

The OutLaw Music Festival 2017

The Joe Louis Arena is scheduled to be demolished, this would most likely be our last visit to the arena.

July 8 2017, The Outlaw Music Festival Tour 2017 in Michigan. We were early, were there at 0300 in the afternoon.

Micah Nelson

Lukas Nelson

Sheryl Crow

Bob Dylan

Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit.

Willie Nelson and the whole crew at the finale.

The concert finished at about 1030 and we left just a little after that.  With road constructions, we were home at about 1:00 that night.  Vyn said:  That concert lasted two days...

Glad that Bandit was able to control himself and not made a mess in the house.   It was the longest we left him alone in the house, missing his usual daily routine.

MacWoods Sand Dune Ride / Little Sable Pointe Lighthouse / Cherry Farm

At our lake. The kids love sitting on the deck and watching the water and fish below.

We found this Eastern Box Turtle right on the edge of the water.  

Went with the grandma to MacWoods Dune Rides.

Started the adventure at this bridge.  The ride is like a roller coaster with stops every now and then for our guide to tell us about the things we saw and about the dunes.

These are just the tops of the trees.

Lake Michigan.

After the dune ride, we decided to stop by the Little Sable Point Lighthouse since it is just about a mile away from MacWoods.

Our view from above the lighthouse.

On our way home, we stopped by  Cherry Point Farm in Shelby.  We saw the farm on our way to the dune ride and decided to stop by on our way back.

It was a great day with the grandma enjoying the dunes, the lighthouse and visiting a beautiful farm.
