Kendall's Day

Today is Kendall's birthday day! And a dandy one it was!

Of course the day started with a run (me and Taz) and walk (Kendall).

Taz gets to turn on the jet engines along a quiet stretch of shoreline

My run with Taz done, we rendezvous with the birthday boy along the waterfront and stroll back home together to get ready for the day's next adventure. 

And that next adventure is lunch at Legs Inn - a Polish restaurant in a little town north of Petoskey right along Lake Michigan. It's been there for years. In my younger days, my buddies and I would go there for a lively evening's entertainment with music from a jukebox where selections were about half and half polka and rock. Now it's an older crowd (pry everyone who partied there in the 1960s-70s) who come for the great Polish food and view of Lake Michigan.

Upon our return to Petoskey with full stomachs we relaxed for a bit - me with the pup and a book down by the bay.

With our energy supplies restored, we strolled uptown for a look at the "Back to the Bricks" classic car show - over 200 cars parked on all of Petoskey's downtown streets. It was quite the sight and the vintage cars fit right in with Kendall's birthday ;-)

Note the license plate!

And on this one, the bumper sticker

And, of course, no day in Petoskey is complete without gazing at the sunset...
