We have been snapping pictures of the things we get a kick out of as we drive around town. I am sure we will see more. Hope one or two of them put a smile in your heart too.
Notice the eyes on the fire hydrant. We thought maybe it was just this one, but no they are like that all over town.
This sits in the harbor here just down the street about a mile from us. We will explore further when its not so windy cold.
You don't see this much in Arizona. But lots of trucks and cars have this kind of damage from the salt they put on the roads after it snows. We will probably spend more at the car wash here than on food. LOL.
Love this one! You see them on some streets, but this one is on the bridge that goes over the Cheboygan River on our way to our church building.
We saw this on one our drives out of town and took it in memory of one of our grandson's, Riggs. He is on the other side of the veil and we'd like to think he is "assigned" to watch over us from time to time.
What kid wouldn't like this for their backyard slide? Someone is really creative. To be honest, one of the things we see most in people's yards are old boats, not on a trailer, just in their yards.
This was the price of gas all over the area for the first couple of weeks. It just went up to $3.69.
One night it rained all night. We decided to drive about 16 miles out to one of our branch members home to meet their 15 year old grandson who is special needs, but ready to be baptized. As we got closer this is the road we traversed. When we drove into the "driveway" the grandfather was out on the driveway with a shovel trying to reroute the water off the dirt. They are a really sweet, humble family. They have their share of challenges, but they are kind.
When we left, he gave us a dozen eggs and introduced us to his pet turkey. Her name is "Sweet Pea."
But, here is her portrait. We make new friends everyday.
Oh, and one last picture. Elder Gibbons has not forgotten how to shovel snow even if it has been over 40 years!!
