June 6, 2015 – Day 4
Monroeville, PA – Lambertville, MI
261 miles/4 hours

Oh, Momma woke up this morning in the throes of a major
allergy attack. I’ve encounter feathers somewhere in my travels and/or it’s something
regional. Ugh. As a result, I was feeling sluggish, which made our drive back
across Ohio tough. Especially since it was overcast and all Turnpike driving. Boring!
We arrived in Lambertville, MI (a suburb of Toledo, just
over the state line) at 2:45. My cousin Jan greeted me with her latest creative
libation, Hippy Juice. I drank slowly, as the children (Jan and Jeff have
three) all got reacquainted. The sun was out in Michigan and the kids wanted to
swim, so Jeffy and I took the kids up to the neighborhood pool. Although the sun was out, it had done little to warm the water. It was so cold! The
kids didn’t last too long.
Jeff cooked out – and we ate like kings. My allergies got
the best of me, so I turned in rather early, around 9:30. I couldn’t even keep
my eyes open long enough to read! Barrett and Cammy were also members of the
early-to-bed club.
Speaking of reading – that’s a good Segway to tell you about
a great book I just finished listening to. The
Royal We, by Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan, is a story loosely based on England’s
William and Kate. I loved it. It’s clever, funny, and juicy! Highly recommend.

Lazy, lazy day. Pool time, bike riding, volleyball, NASCAR, movies,
eating and reading. That’s all she wrote for today, folksJ!
Quote of the day. Cammy: “I
don’t know where you grew that attitude, but you need to plant another seed!”
After Hunter uncharacteristically mouthed off to his mother.
Chilly swim day, but they're tough!
My little dude.
Audie & Beansie, pedaling it old school!
