Well, last week we headed over to Door County in Wisconsin to visit Erin’s relatives that live out there.\u00a0 It was a pretty jam-packed trip.\u00a0 We left Cook around noon on Wednesday and drove the 8 hours out there pretty much straight on through.\u00a0 We stayed the night at Erin’s cousin Mark’s house which is very big.\u00a0 Good thing too because there were 14 of us staying there including his family.<\/p>\n

We got up the next morning and headed out to a park nearby for a little bike riding.<\/p>\n

We went about 10 miles that afternoon on the bike trails through the forest.\u00a0 It was nice to get out and enjoy the fresh air.\u00a0 Jesse and I headed to the “off road” trails while the rest of the crew stayed on one of the main loops that go around the park.<\/p>\n

We all ended up meeting up at a beach where we took a little rest and then headed back to the car for some frozen custard.\u00a0 That evening we relaxed in the sauna in the house and had smores out by a campfire in the back yard.<\/p>\n

Friday we went out for lunch at a restaurant called PC Junction.\u00a0 Its a little place on the side of the road that has a train track around a circular bar in the main room.\u00a0 A model train cruises the tracks delivering you your food.\u00a0 Its a fun little place to go.<\/p>\n

After lunch we headed out to a cherry orchard where we loaded up on tart cherries.\u00a0 Two huge bucket fulls for 10 bucks . Not to mention the few that made it into our mouths in stead of the bucket.<\/p>\n

That evening the boys headed to the races and the girls went to a movie called Hairspray in the theater.\u00a0 The races were fun, I’d never been before, so it was quite the experience.\u00a0 No real big crashes, but exciting none the less.\u00a0 On our way to the races we stopped off and bought Payton, Jake, and Eric some candy to eat while they watched.\u00a0 Well Jessie and I snagged Payton’s skittles and were playing a game of keep away from him.\u00a0 This was all fun and games until the bag literally disappeared.\u00a0 We looked all over for them and couldn’t find them.\u00a0 Crazily enough after watching the races for a couple of hours we were walking back to the car and found them on the ground.\u00a0 So Payton was in luck after all and Jesse and I were off the hook.<\/p>\n

After the races we took another sauna and headed to bed.<\/p>\n

Saturday Jim, Jesse, Mat, and myself joined Erin’s cousin Craig on his boat out on lake Michigan for a little salmon fishing.\u00a0 Craig has a very nice boat, and was a gracious host.\u00a0 We were out on the water for the entire afternoon and evening.\u00a0 We ended up with 2 salmon and 3 trout.\u00a0 We lost about that many through out the day from broken lines and other mishaps.\u00a0 It was very nice to be out in the sun on such a nice day.<\/p>\n
