Our weekend started off Saturday morning getting ready to make the 2 hour drive north to Jim & Renee's house for the Morris Reunion. Many years ago this took place at the Gough family cottage, which was located right on the shore of Lake Huron inside Forester Park. Since the cottage was sold, the dates and locations have changed, but for the past several year's Jim & Renee have been kind enough to host us at their home. The kids typically love this reunion because of the swimming pool, complete with a slide! Unfortunately this year the weather was a tad chilly, with a reported high of 69° (and it never felt that warm, thanks to the intermittent rain and mist coming down throughout the day). Drew toughed out the pool the longest, which was a tad surprising considering it is usually Samantha and Tyler who are the "fish" of our family. Drew did really well in the pool today - he was even swimming with his head underwater by the end of the day today, with no assistance from any kind of flotation devices aside from some goggles that only covered his eyes. Great job Drew!

	Tyler was fresh out of the pool in this picture as he looked for a spot to sit near Julie and Terry.
	Drew throwing a ball across the pool as he and Sam played "soccer" - she was on land and could only use her legs, he was in the pool and could use his arms.
	Drew getting ready to move the floating chair so that Dozier could get into the pool.

    On our way heading to Forester Park from the reunion we spotted several freighters on Lake Huron. They were much closer to shore than they usually are, probably due to the storms that had been hitting the area. I know that their was no electricity in Port Sanilac all the way north to at least Forester Park. Thankfully it was back on by the time we got there...

	A third freighter could be seen further north...
	A closer look at the waves and the sky reveal what was probably a storm taking place out on the open waters of Lake Huron.
	Another look at the freighter passing by.
	One more look at the northern-most freighter.

    After darkness settled in for the night, we put off one of those lantern thing-a-ma-jigs... Sorry the pictures aren't the greatest - I haven't really figured out all of the settings for quality night photos yet.
