Vacation Vibes

So 23 Things started while I was in Michigan but as a lifelong learner, I was busy, well, learning. So I will now amaze and astound you with my new knowledge from my trip:

1. There is an amazing amount of road work going on this summer in every state.

2. The temp on the UP of MI can be 95 one day and 60 the next.

3. Honesty is the best policy when speeding through MI and meeting a sheriff deputy up close and personal (be sure to mention you just stopped for ice cream in his little town!)

4. Walmarts are the same everywhere. (Imagine!)

5. Sandhill Cranes are monogamous and their babies are so gangly and cute (especially when being chased by a tourist train.)

6. Waves on Lake MI can reach 5' very quickly but you will probably not die on the tour boat ride (but you might get sick.)

For anyone who hasn't noticed, I mastered Habit #7.5 this week. The hardest habit for me will probably be creating a toolbox.

23 Things--The Beginning

23 things on the computer makes me think we should have a song...you know like "99 bottles of beer on the wall" which was always a favorite on our church bus trips when I was younger. Something like this:

23 things to learn real quick, 23 things to learn,
Along we will slog and make us a blog,
Then 22 things to learn will remain...

Ok, so I'm no Barry Manilow.
