One Year Ago

October 7, 2011 - Our move to the U.P. was less than 2 weeks away.  Steve was going to make one last trip to the U.P. with Butch's trailer full of stuff that the moving company wasn't going to haul for us.  Randy Yackel helped us load the freezer onto the back of the truck.

Steve apparently wanted some company on the long drive.  The rest of his buddies were in the trailer.

October 18, 2011 - Everything was packed, and the movers arrived to load our belongings.

October 19, 2011 - We made the trip to the U.P. with Cocoa and her doghouse in the back of our pickup.  We arrived in Calumet after dark, ate Whoppers from Burger King and slept on the floor in the living room.

October 20, 2011 - The moving truck arrived, and the furniture was unloaded without a hitch.  We took the moving men to dinner at The Hut and got a good night's sleep in our own bed.

Today - One Year Later - The wonderful smell of homemade bread is wafting from the kitchen.  Although we're not yet living on our property near Eagle Harbor. . .

we still get to enjoy the beauty of this area.

We absolutely love it here, and Cocoa loves it, too.

Thank you, Lord.  All is well in the Keweenaw.
