For those of you who don't know this yet, I have decided (with much pressure from...an outside source) that I would not be spending my summer in CAlifornia. And when you find out my trade-off, you may call me crazy. But at this point, I--Don't--Care.
I'm in the "midwest" for the next 6 weeks-ish. Basically, from July 2-August 13 I will be in Michigan and Indiana. This is new. This is different. And yes, this is crazy. To be honest, I'm still on day 1 here in the lovely Detroit Michigan area. Enjoying thoroughly, might I add...
ok, so I am really mad at myself. As I was typing this I was like, Hmmm, pictures could help this a lot. But then i remembered that I was GOING to bring a camera, but i believe I forgot. That is tragic. Grrrrr....
Back on track. Anyways, did you know that 2% of the US population is farmers? (Econ fact). And that I'm pretty sure that I know all 2%?? Yeah. Ok, wait...maybe not all. 1.76%? Fair enough?
Oh, and I have to tell you about these kids I'm staying with. I'm with Troy and Jennifer Schrock here in Detroit. They have three children: Navy (8), Merrit (7) and Grey (4.5). Let me tell you that these kids are not shy in the least. And they love questions.
"What's your middle name?"
"Did you have Lincoln Logs when you were a child?"
"Is that one shirt or two?"
"Will you read us a Bobbsey Twins book?"
It really is a lot of fun. They are at piano lessons right now, and I am sitting here on the bed...typing a blog. good times. Grrr, i really want a camera. Maybe someday.
