Ed and I are invited to visit friends in Michigan. We decided to leave a day early and stop in Frankenmuth. A couple of years ago we had visited Frankenmuth in December to celebrate our anniversary. I have to say that it is much warmer in September than it is in December.
We arrived late in the afternoon on the 16th and left just after noon on the 17th. The Drury Inn was our residence for the evening. The inn provides breakfast as well as a simple dinner of penne with marinara sauce, grilled chicken, baked potato, salad and hot dogs. Oh, did I mention the three free drinks? We ate dinner at the inn and shared a table with a couple from Toledo who were going to celebrate their 50th anniversary on Friday. The four of us were having a good time chatting and didn't notice that everyone else had left the room.
Ed couldn't believe the number of antennas on the water tower.
Yup, Ed found a couple of geocaches in town.
An interesting water fountain and the glockenspiel tower.
The covered bridge.
The Frankenmuth Fish Passage Project is building a rock ramp over the dam in the Cass River.
After dinner, Ed and I drove to Bronner's Christmas Wonderland. It was interesting walking around looking at Christmas ornaments, listening to Christmas music in September and seeing Christmas lights.
