Well, actually I am already back after spending an extended weekend at my friend’s place in Augusta, MI. Couldn’t have asked for more perfect weather, great hosts and a jam packed agenda.

Jenifer & Steve’s place is on a lake and we spent time enjoying the amazing weather and scenery.

I hadn’t seen Jenifer and Steve since her 60th birthday celebration a couple years ago. A few new faces in their cat family of 11. I thought three was a handful!

Once a month the Kellogg Research & Development, Quality and Nutrition retirees have a get together and the timing worked out and I had the great fortune of attending and seeing many of the ladies I used to work with.

As Steve is having shoulder surgery, one of the big tasks at hand was to make sure Jenifer could get the pontoon boat operational and “park” it by herself … Mission Accomplished! Add in a few hikes and great meals and then back to reality.
