    Frank drove his camper rig and I rode my bike down to Ionia from Frank's house in Mio, after Amber and I went in the West Branch parade. That night we setup camp and went in to down town Ionia for the parade of lights, which was GREAT!! There was some little fireworks when we got back to camp.

        We all went for a ride to find some covered bridges.

        Then Bob, Jean, and I rode back to Mio in the HOT HOT SUN!! 91º out
                With only a dozen little rain drops in one sunning spot.
        Red Dog went home to get a nice warm shower!!

Over all... 200 miles down, 200 miles back, 680 miles total so there was 280 miles of cursing around down there.
New says, 'Shut up you stupid smelly hairy hippy' and I have now 13 Thouuuuussssssand miles on my bike.
The best part is that Amber and I got to make some new friends and enjoy every minute being around all of our friends.
