Little River Casino M&M II




Well we left Goshen IN and the PassPort America Rally on Saturday and got here in Manistee MI at the Little River Casino for the Michigan Mini on Sunday. There are 13 rigs here and we had brats and dogs for supper on Sunday. Today we went to Mac Woods in Mears MI and road the Sand Dunes and than went to the Casino. Here are a couple of pictures of the dunes.
On Wednesday we went to a Old House in Manistee by the name of The Babcock House. This place had a lot of history in it and a lot of old musical stuff. We was there for about two hours listening to this guy talk about it. He also lives in it. Also Lois got lucky and won $300 at the Casino and she was all smiles. Thursday will be a free day to do what ever. Around 2 PM we all got together and play some games and had pictures taken of the group. Most of us went to supper at the Casino after the games and happy hour.
On Friday we got things pick up around the camp site so we could leave, but first went to breakfast at the Casino. They sure have a great breakfast there. Got on the road to head home around 11 AM after all the goodbyes was said. Its always sad to say good by after having a great week with our HitchHiker friends. We made it home safe and sound around 3 PM and unpacked the 5th wheel. Tomorrow we will wash and wax the 5th wheel.
