I have been to Scotland. My Dad was born there so I got to visit relatives. It is interesting to see a country with natives as guides. The old churches were great. I also got to go to the visit wedding in my generation - the bride had never been to a wedding. Can't imagine that!
As a kid spending lots of time on Belle Isle, I can imagine the paranormal happening there. I believe that was a hot bed for rum-running during prohibition. Imagine the stories those building could tell.
We met in 7th grade and were friends in high school. When the "Girl ask Guy" dance came up our Senior year, I asked 2 guys and he was my 3rd try. We dated steady from there, married after college(the 2nd guy I ask that said 'no' stood up for my husband), and are still happily married 34 years later.
We would visit my husband's grandmother. She was "old-world" Polish and would start to feed you as soon as you arrived. She lived right on Lake Huron - we would eat on her porch and watch the hummingbirds. All the relatives gathered there. We went any holiday we could!
