headed off on a family fun river raft float trip
not real relaxing as expected
but lots of adventures/misadventures instead
so many laughs and we all survived

argo park, huron river, Ann Arbor, michigan, u.s.a. – summer 2019
great fun
at a game of
the traverse city pit spitters vs. the wisconsin woodchucks.
nice field
light attendance
good seats
cheap food and drinks
dinos, mascot, lively fans, crazy promos,
singing, dancing, kids on the grass,
nice weather, music, good company
all that
and a baseball game too
a very pleasant way to experience an evening.
