Off to the Rock

Well, we are off to the Rock today. No biggy, just a 14 hour roadtrip with a toddler and a very large dog. But it is always worth the effort to enjoy the beauty & simplicity of life (mom, pay attention) on Lake Michigan.

I used to eagerly anticipate the geeky emails my dad would inevitably send to me, Greg, Scott, Julie & Judd before we would descend on the lake. They would always reference some teaser of an activity he was conjuring up as well as some super cheesy photos meant to get us psyched up for the trip. Some involved local fauna, many involved flags, and almost all of them included vistas of the Rock's beach. Below are just a few examples of his artistic talents.






Carly, Sully & I will be gone for three glorious weeks, so we'll try to stay in touch by blogging from afar...rumor has it that the Rock just got high speed internet, which is very exciting. THAT would have been helpful while trying to plan a wedding.
