* Weekend in review
Posted on August 24th, 2008 by mdl. Filed under Family & Friends, Updates.
Friday night: wasted trying to fix my blog which is still a little in shambles.
Saturday morning: ordered Nate a new mac. Remoted my Brother-in-law’s new mac to get things set up for him, more to do on that still. Strike up a conversation with Martine @ LCC who was an interesting fellow and quite talkitive.
Saturday noon’ish: split for the Great Wooded North.
Saturday approx 2 pm: Mike and Di arrive at awesome cottage near Higgins Lake, to a downpour with trimmings of thunder. Mike and Di realize they (mostly Mike) left bathing suits in Mason. Mike proceeds to get soaked by the rain…twice… Watch Jim and his in laws load the boat, again in the rain. Once back to cottage after about a half hour rain stops.
Saturday evening: boat ride, because the rain stopped silly. A very good time indeed.
Saturday night: games and cake, with two horrible rounds of “happy birthday” to Jim Lenon. Followed by a fun night of Sequence and Apples to Apples.
Sunday morning: buy swim suit for Mike, docked boat, Lenon boys swam, played some catch, yada yada.
Sunday afternoon: parted ways w/ the hosts. Went to West Higgins Lake dirtbike trail, TONS of good memories there. Di and Mike went for a walk down the trail a ways.
Drive home, uneventful and smooth.
Mix copious amounts of food in there and you have the weekend in a nutshell. It was a GREAT time!

Doooode, I went to leave and my low coolant light goes off. I stop pop the hood and the coolant resivoir is bone dry. The buttheads at valvoline instant oil never refilled it!! This is why I never get oil changes and tune ups the day I go out of town. I break my rule once and probably came pretty close to blowing the engine. I dont know how I made it up to higgins but must have just barely got there. After about an hour of trying to find the matching coolant in podunk higgins area we were back on the road. crazy afternoon Sunday was.
