Earlier this week we took a quick getaway to Tawas City, MI to visit with my brother Tom and sister-in-law Debbie. They have a 5th wheel there in a RV Park that they stay in from May thru October. Then they have another 5th wheel in Myrtle Beach, SC that they stay in from November thru April.
I snapped this picture while we were driving up.

This is the Zilwaukee bridge. I always say that you are not "up north" until you cross the Zilwaukee!
We stopped at a really old restaurant in Standish for lunch. This was at the table.
This may be the only table juke box in existence!
My favorite part of our little trip besides seeing my brother is the walk I take along Tawas Bay/Lake Huron in the morning.
You can usually catch a beautiful sunrise here too but I did not get up early enough to do that!
It was nice to get away if only for one night.
In other news:
This bear picture pops up on my computer monitor at work.
I just love this picture! I just want to give him a big hug!! LOL!
That's it for now.
Until the next time take care and thanks for reading!

I remember you going to visit him there before. What a pretty spot! I've not been to that area before.
ReplyDeleteLove the bear!
That sounds like a nice trip and I love the scenery. I haven't seen a table like that in a restaurant for a LONG time...how cool. Love the bear.
ReplyDeleteMore pretty photos of your state. Mari shared some beauts. Cute bear!
ReplyDeleteI thought you left your job. Did you get a new one?
I'm still at my job. I plan to leave at the end of October.
DeleteMy favorite photo is the beautiful one with the sun shining on the water. Actually, we have a tabletop jukebox in Staunton at Wright's Dairy. Good to know there is another!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful walk! I looked up Tawas City. We weren't too far from there in July. I've never to Lake Huron, but it looks beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting post, Jeanette! Not only have I not been to this part of the country, but I've never heard of the Zilwaukee bridge. Thanks for broadening my horizons!
ReplyDeleteNice to get away from time to time. Sounds like your brother has the perfect set up. I remember those table top juke boxes. I haven't seen one in a long time.
ReplyDeleteI love the Great Lakes!! I will be on the shores of Lake Superior this weekend.
ReplyDeleteI am so thankful I do not live to far from Lake Superior, I love it so.
I love that bear too. ;-)
Have a great weekend.

Sounds like a fun little get a way.
ReplyDeleteSo, you're saying your brother and sis-in-law have two 5th wheelers that they drive back and forth to? Cool set up without having the haul a big RV around.
ReplyDeleteLovely views on your walk, I'm sure they're even better in person.
Beautiful photos and yes, it's nice to get away. smiles
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice little get-away. Wish my husband would agree to go somewhere. :) I've never heard of any of these places. I like the old tabletop juke box!
ReplyDeleteSounds like such a refreshing little getaway!
ReplyDeleteThat tabletop jukebox is a gem, and your walk along Tawas Bay sounds so peaceful.
The bear photo made me smile.
OMG! I remember those table top juke boxes, but had forgotten all about them. I love the picture that you posted. Now, I think I’d like to have one of those myself.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful lake and handsome bear!
ReplyDeleteI haven’t seen a tabletop two box in a long time. Cool they are still around.
ReplyDeleteThe bear is adorable, but that might be a one sided hug!
ReplyDeleteThe views are gorgeous there...how sweet you got to visit with your brother. Oh, how i miss the table jukeboxes!
That does look like a beautiful walk along the lake! And I would never see the sunrise either, haha! I would've been playing all kinds of oldies on that table juke box! Hahaha xoxo 🏴☠️
