Lilacs! I love them. We have three in the back yard. Years ago on a trip which took me into OR, entering Klamath Falls the aroma of lilacs permeated the atmosphere. The streets were lined with lilacs and they grew in practically every yard in town, at least in the part I passed through. They covered practically all the negative odors usually associated with towns.<br />Nice Cadillac. Must be a boring job though, running back and forth beween two piers. At least the carriage driver has time to relate with his passengers.<br />The bridge looks like the Golden Gate or the SF/Oakland bay suspension bridges. Which came first? Wonder if they were designed and/or built by the same companies.<br />Anyway, looks like you had a great trip. Oh, by the way: Obama says you have used your share of petroleum products for this year and he wants that motor home parked until 2013 when his new fuel tariffs take effect. :-) TomAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6733427454505364336.post-91333331652311347662012-07-16T20:17:03.664-05:002012-07-16T20:17:03.664-05:00My wife and I hit the island back in 1989.

I can still smell the fudge.L.

I miss a lot about Michigan, although leaving there has been a much better choice....it's funny how Minnesota is forever changing, and I can go back to any of the towns I lived in Michigan and pretty much everything is still the same!21 Witshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00071361755673253230noreply@blogger.com
