I had just recovered when Eric's parents arrived for a visit from New Hampshire. We did a lot of entertaining and eating and drinking and then I think I broke my baby toe or severely bruised it (something about peanut shells and a Twins baseball game and a veggie dog and a hard metal seat--I will spare you the details--just know my toe looks like a Vienna sausage and it sort of limits my choice of footwear).
Anyhow we went to the casino and to a Twins game and out to eat at Joe's Garage and Pier 500 and did a lovely brunch cruise down the St. Croix River. It was a lot of eating & drinking and I only worked out one night the entire time they were here so am feeling fat. Have to get back in the groove! I did work out last night but I had to do the elliptical in flip flops because of my toe. I wore a really cushiony pair so that was nice but I kind of felt like I didn't have much traction. It has rained the past two nights but I am hopeful I can do a walk tonight.
So they left on Tuesday morning and now this weekend Eric and I are taking off for a lovely trip to Mackinac Island, Michigan--one of my favorite road trip destinations! It is all about bicycles and fudge and relaxing and unplugging. This time I also bought us tickets for a ghost tour of some haunted places around the island and I am also hoping that we can go horseback riding. You can rent a horse for $40 per hour.
So I am all excited about that! And that is what has been going on with me in a nutshell. I will put up some new pictures over at Daisy Chloe.
Happy Weekend Eve!

I have heard of the ghost tour at Mackinac Island. Have a great time. It sounds like you deserve it a whole bunch after you recent adventures.
