It's been a long ride without you...

Ben, Tim, Carol and me in Cheboygan, MI...our meet-up location after a 5 month separation
We traveled 50 miles to meet up with our Looper buddies Tim and Carol on Liquid Assets. We last saw them in March (that's five long months ago) when they left Marathon to begin their journey up the coast. That was a sad day for us, but today is the opposite! Ben and I both found ourselves giddy with excitement as we were getting closer to our destination of Cheboygan, MI. Not only do we love hanging with them, but they also have a dog, Benji, who Crocket loves as well. We all were excited!!! We planned two nights here, knowing we would need a day to recover from whatever we found ourselves doing! What a blessed life we lead, we get to enjoy our last few weeks traveling with those we love and even better we get to show them all our favorite spots!

Our gorgeous morning on the water
I couldn't keep the smile off my face. It felt so good to be back with our buddies.
Enjoying drinks and appetizers
Tim and Ben up to no good!
We all enjoyed prime rib and the bad shots here!
Tim, Ben, me, Gaby, Carol and John (from the boat Crazy Love)
Getting ready to eat our hearts out on some of Ben's smoked ribs! 
The chef with his goods
Yummy!!!
We spent our second day at the beach
And our third day (we had to stay an extra day because of weather) here!!
We had two 8D batteries (these are for 12V electrical) that needed replaced, and luck would have it that the local marine dealer could accommodate us. We had them installed and the old ones removed (mind you each battery weighs over 100lbs) so Ben didn't have to risk hurting his back.

We got a special visit from Bob and Liz who were a 15 min car ride away at Mac City.
We enjoyed a movie on our third day, which was cold and stormy. This is Carol and me walking back to our boats, this was our last walk in Cheboygan.
