We arrived at Muskallonge Lake State Park early enough this afternoon to enjoy the last couple hours of the Eighth Annual Muskallonge Rock Show featuring Lake Superior agates. We browsed our way through several booths, talked with interesting people, became owners of a slice of agate suitable as a pendant and a hunk of copper ore from the area of the Baltic Mine in Houghton County. And we ran into friends Kathy & John who were our neighbors for three nights at Tahquamenon Rivermouth! We’d stumbled upon this rock show event three years ago. Coming back this time wasn’t exactly planned. We wanted to come back to the park because it’s a wonderful place to walk a ways on the Superior shore and that’s what we did later in the afternoon. It’s been a gloriously sunny day and strolling the rock strewn lakeshore seeing if we could spot any agates is a fabulous way to spend a sunny Sunday in September!

Burgh House Hampstead

Burgh House Hampstead

Off the beaten path is Hampstead is the more than three hundred year old Burgh House with a fascinating history. It’s now a community center, local museum, gallery, concert venue, event space, and more open to the public four days a week. We popped over for a bite to eat and to peruse the galleries to learn a little more about Hampstead history.

Wicked The Musical

Wicked The Musical

Ever since its debut on Broadway the two of us have wanted to see “Wicked the Musical”. Today we realized that dream. In the Apollo Victoria Theater in London’s West End we were witness to the incredible prequel to The Wizard of Oz, the story of the Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
