VISITING GINNIE'S FAMILY

On our way home from New London, Ohio we decided to stop for a few days in the Milford/Clyde, MI area to visit Ginnie's family.

This is the area where Ginnie was born and spent the first 17 years of her life. In 1951 she moved to New London, Ohio and finished her eleventh and twelfth grades of high school. (That is how we met.)

I am terrible at remembering to take pictures.. although I carry the camera with us... I then forget it is in the truck. Therefore, I did not get pictures of all her relatives we got to visit. I have included photos of those whose pictures I did remember to take. We both had a wonderful time visiting the family.

The first photo is Ginnie with two of her nieces.. Chris and Dana. We were at Chris and Marty's for coffee that morning and Dana dropped by.

The second photo is with Ginnie's nephew John and his wife Debbie. (They picked us up and took us to breakfast on Mother's Day morning.

The balance of the photos were take at Ginnie's great niece Erin's house. Her and her husband Dave put on a wonder Mother's Day BBQ for the Gardner family. We were blessed to have been invited and had a wonderful time.

The third photo is Erin's dad Terry... her brother Lee and her husband Dave.

The fourth photo is Lee's wife Leslie and Erin.

The last photo is Erin's mother (Ginnie's niece) Dana and Erin's husband Dave's mother.

Like I said, I missed taking pictures of several others... maybe I will do better next time!

We are leaving Ginnie's old home town area this morning and heading up to Otter Lake for a couple of days to visit our old neighbors, Bernie and Bonnie Thomas. We will be staying at Otter Lake RV Park. Thursday AM we will be on our way home to our Log Cabin In The Woods. We left there last Oct. 15th. and it will be good to get home once again after being gone for seven months.
