5-5-12 Lansing Mi MSU Cottonwood Campground

Today's blog hasn't much to do with our normal travels ( did I just say "normal" about us ?)  We headed to Lansing Mi for my daughter's, Shannon, graduation. Boy, does 5 years go by quickly ! She  has been a social science student and along with 1400 students she walked ( the plank??)..I was suprised to find tears of joy flowing from me..You other parents out there know what I mean..I'm so proud of her determination and hard work..We  all went to lunch after the ceremony. I really like her boyfriend, Darrel, as he's always kind, polite, and considerate and thinking ahead.
  We make a stop in Mt Pleasant whenever we go to Lansing, time permitting, and stay at  the  campground of Soaring Eagle Casino. It's a great deal at $18 with elect & water. Nice woodsy setting and a shuttle bus to the casino..Stopped Southbound & got lucky and for a change walked away with some of their money to the tune of +$200..WOO-HOO !! Gonna stop on the way back home and try our luck again.
   Another fun stop in Lansing was Harbor Freight Tools. Bought a new air compressor. It's a great store to wander around in. (FOR GUYS mainly)..
  Gotta get back to selling stuff this week so we can get our fulltime adventure rolling..Gonna be a lot of work !
Hope all of you are enjoying the approach of summer. REMEMBER, LIVE YOUR DREAMS AS TIME GOES BY QUICKLY....Charlie & Heather
