Few bumps in the road back home

The gang enjoyed a last breakfast on the deck before heading down state to resume normal activities. Dad left mid-morning so he could get back to home and to CCI. The rest of us started packing, cleaning, organizing, etc. We wanted to go in to HS to look at a hardware store in hopes of finding cabinet door knobs and a no leak faucet. Ian really wanted to drive Grandma's big truck so he drove while Grandma packed up somethings in the car. He apparently played so long that he wore the battery down because the car wouldn't start when we were ready to heading to town. The Trout Creek maintenance man came and jumped the truck. It's a good thing Ian hadn't done any more damage than just wearing down the battery. That's all the playing Ian will do in Grandma's car no matter how much he "insists".

We hit the road heading south about 2. Ian didn't fall asleep until after 3 which surprised me greatly.

We stopped for a short time in Albion and we saw Stephanie, Owen and Mollie and Ian got to stretch her legs and then Caroline brought Ian and I all the way back to Allen Park.

Here is a short video of some of our 4th of July weekend activities.
