10-06-11 Enroute..Mt Pleasant Mich

Yohoo !!! The  winter adventure began yesterday..We took our time winterizeing the house and packing the last items in the motorhome. Got out of Houghton Lake about 2PM. Pulled into Mt Pleasant Chippewa Campground by 3:30PM and got settled in and celebrated with a happy hour, then a geezer nap..gotta be prepared for the shuttle pickup to the casino up the street :)..Heather had the luck and me??? I don't wanna talk about it.(down $60)..got back to camp kinda late via a wobbly course..of course..Had a great sleep in and did some running around town..had to buy a new power cord for the computer as our crapped out and had a great lunch at Applebees..Back at camp we did a quality check on the beer stash (grin) and napped up again for another stab at the casino...tonite was my nite and not Heather's..I see a new computer on my list..(WOO-HOO!!)  Tomorrow we head East to the Thumb to visit some dear friends in Gagetown and Carsonville and Croswell for a few days..Hopeing to see a few long lost friends too..Gotta renew my American Legion membership in Croswell, a great little club. Some of the American Legion posts down South have Campgrounds and it pays to belong. Same thing with the Eagles organization..The colors of fall are just gorgeous at this Camp, we sat out at the picnic table this afternoon and enjoyed the beauty and the birds and the quiet, not too many people here, I think about 5 campers. The weather is perfect.  Hope you all are with us on the journey. REMEMBER..LIVE YOUR DREAMS AS TIME GOES BY QUICKLY..Charlie&Heather
