Another state, another pin!
Detroit Greenfield RV park
A former KOA,,,
On a nice small lake-into which we were not allowed to put our boats
clearly no longer kept to KOA standards, but worked fine for us as just an overnite stop on the way to the Detroit Temple
Until...somebody didn't see the quiet hours rule...and partied and sang loudly until 4 in the morning!
We didn't even unhook the trailer here
Saturday morning we drove to Detroit
We parked in the parking lot of the Bloomfield Hills Stake Center. we didn't recognize it as a building of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. apparently Governor George Romney had something to do with it's construction.
We lunched and dressed comfortably in the trailer then headed across the parking lot to the temple.
Very similar to the Palmyra Temple, but each has it's own peresonality
A lovely red headed sister came in and took the sister witness seat. I thought, ' Boy, she looks like Becky Udy Lindseth...but too young.' Gary came in. pointed to her and indicated it was in fact Becky! She and Chris are Ordinance workers there and this was their shift. It was very nice to see them! They are in the process of preparing to move to Draper UT to be near 3 of their kids.
Next we drove towards Kalamazoo. We found a campsite at Oakshores campground in Vicksburg, MI. The campground has been here for 50 years but is under new management who are working to build it up and improve it. We got in about 6PM and were planning to head to the Wesel's for dinner, but it was a long drive and we were tired so we set up camp and stayed put
Lots of frogs were singing
on the shores of this little lake
Really cool fungus growing on this tree stump
Sunday morning we got up and headed to Kalamazoo 2nd Ward to attend church with the Wesel family.
after church we followed them home and had a lovely visit and delicious dinner with them.
Thanks Kevin, Jessica, Liberty, Kevin, Jarom and Basilio for a wonderful day!
