Howell Michigan Hot Air Balloon Festival - June 2008

Hi Everyone: Gary and our Camping family went over to Howell for the Hot Air Balloon Festival this past weekend. The weather wasn't to bad, but we didn't get to see the Balloon's launch. It was to windy that day. But the event had lots of other things for us to see. There was a Medieval area, Sky Divers, Classic Car show, Carnival rides and so that meant Elephant ears! Also we say a stunt kite show, dog show, and an art show. So we had enough to keep us busy for a few hours. Gary and I were on to provide dessert Friday evening so I took advantage of this and we celebrated Gary's 50th birthday which will actually be Tues. July 1st. On Friday morning Gary and I wondered over to downtown Howell where we ran into the Fox 2 reporter. She was ordering a new purse from this little Boutique in Howell. I found a new bag to carry to church that has Philippians 4:13 embroidered on the front. I thought it would be great for my bible and glass's I have to use to read now! :) Maybe that way I won't forget and leave them on the pew!
Gary also picked up a new Coffee Mug for himself. Well, take care until next time. Hope you are enjoying the summer, it seems that it's either been Hot and muggy or chilly here. Hopefully we will get some consistent weather in the 80's soon!
God Bless,
Grandma Cheryl
