Back and Forth

Well, I'll take a shot at bloggerating. Spending time in TC has been pretty cool. It's a bit of a break from our usual Detroit State of Mind - just enough I found out yesterday to really appreciate both places. While travelling South to spend some time with the Wayne State Catalyst cats, I had a cool "welcome home" moment when the Ren Cen finally appeared on the skyline. But then, later that night, heading back to the trailer, I had another moment of "this weekend, with it's music and trips to the shore and etc, will be fun!"

Anywho, we keep making these silly videos. So here's another.

TC day 3, wsg SUN!

So after two days of raining and a weather forecast of rain all week, the sun decided to peak its head out at us today. So we walked over to the edge of Silver Lake here in TC and watched a water skier do slalom. Very impressive. We realized though that our videos are not that interesting...or just that we don't have that much to say. But we'll keep it up. I got to see lots of newborns today which is always fun.

TC day 2, wsg RAIN

Day 2 and Annie has already claimed the mayorship of holiday RV park! Wahoo! And the rain is pretty unrelenting which makes leaving the building to pee and shower less appealing but we are adventurers and willing to "rough it" just a little. But with Carol and George's hospitality this is hardly roughing it! But Anna's hippie doctor was right, going back to conventional medicine is hard! I just hope I can make them like me enough to hire me..,if I so choose.

Weekend getaway

So as the fall continues to ramp up and as we are getting ready to travel lots this schoolyear, we got a nice chance to spend a weekend on Lake Michigan. For someone who spent most of the summer studying for boards (which I passed, btw) it seemed like when I finally got the chance to enjoy it, summer was over. But the view from the house on the lake and the music that was being made care of earphoria artists, a little weekend of no responsibility was nice. Halfway thru our Saturday Carl and I were somewhat baffled at what to even do with ourselves. We road bikes to the pier, sat on the beach and walked on the beach, ate a lot, read a little and hung out with Moose and some Chicagoans.



It's funny how when life is constantly taking you in different directions it sometimes takes a good bit of effort to slow down, but we eventually managed. And Sunday we saw a friend home from Boston.
This past month has been net living in Ann Arbor at my moms and learning from what Carl calls the Hippie Doctor. And starting this weekend we are heading up to TC to live in Carl's aunt and uncle's airstream trailer while rotating at Munson Hospital and trying to imagine what that life would be like. It has given us a real sense of our love for Detroit, being away. Luckily we got to be home for Dally in the Alley...but we will again miss the runners of the Marathon run by on our street this year. Makes me think we should stay in this house till I at least get to do that and cheer them all on! Detroit is one of a kind... Liberal enough to make us feel welcome but not too pompous to make us feel bad about being middle of the road sometimes. Anyway, we love this place.
