The Larson clan got together in Traverse City, Michigan for a week.  It was Cherry Festival week and the weather was perfect.  Everyone attended except Jeff and Stephanie.

The week was full of fun activities and lots of food.

  • The house we rented was wonderful.  The yard was huge and the lake was beautiful.
  • The Blue Angels did multiple shows while we were there.
  • Everyone enjoyed the Cherry Festival too.
  • The hike up Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes was awesome.  Everyone made the long hike to Lake Michigan.
  • We celebrated Mom and Dad’s 50 anniversary a bit early this year but Dad still doesn’t remember Mom’s favorite color.
  • We rented a speed boat for skiing and tubing.  I’m not sure if we rate that positive or negative.

It was a great trip with lots of laughs, fun games and plenty of time to visit and tell stories.

Lynn and I took a trip to Colorado for Allison’s wedding. We arrived on Thursday morning and met up with Mike in Denver. We had a nice lunch and walk around the 16th Street Mall. Everyone did some shopping for souvenirs.

Early afternoon Lynn and I took the convertible Mustang up MT Evans; the highest paved road in North America. While Bob thought was great, Lynn was genuinely terrified. It was actually snowing at the top. The visit took a very long time so we drove to our hotel at the Keystone Resort.

On Friday, we slept in and went to the gym. Our brunch by Keystone Lake was very nice. Later we took a bike ride from Keystone to Dillon and back. It was a beautiful day!

Saturday took us to the top of Keystone Mountain for a great hike. Mike and Marie joined us which made it even more special. We took the gondola up and followed a guided tour around the top. The weather was great and everyone had a great time.
