We are also ten miles from small towns and nearly an hour away from a location with a Wal-Mart or mall, like Traverse City (which is still nothing like Flint).<br /><br />From our sun room we have a great view of our yard, which gives way to our pond beyond that. In the pond we have fish, frogs, turtles, snakes, and one sneaky muskrat! We also have the pleasure of spying on canadian geese taking a dip during their migrations, as well as a myriad of other feathered friends.<br /><br />Anyway, we have oodles of pictures. I'll send you an add on Facebook, should you find yourself curious enough to see recently added pictures of our humble home.W.Michaelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6805504101401683454.post-13841528639647220452009-05-21T09:54:08.061-05:002009-05-21T09:54:08.061-05:00I loved this post, too! <br /><br />I wish Janie and Ryan were here, too, and then my family would be all together!
