Marge and I took a whirlwind trip to Detroit last weekend. Flew to Detroit on Fri., and back on
Sun. We did it to use up about 180,000 air miles on what may well be our last trip. The following few pictures are from the trip. The short trip was a huge success for Marge and me. The main reasons it was so great for us, was the wonderful help from Deb, and the really great time and effort from Don and Helen Baker.Don picked us up at the Detroit airport Fri,, and delivered us back Sun. He and Helen also gave us room and board for the weekend, and chauffered all over the city. It was a truly great trip.Thanks you guys.

I didn't!
These pictures are from the 2nd oldest lighthouse in Florida.
Built in 1820. It is at the end of a great National reserve, and also
only a few miles from one or our favorite eating places
