A friend of mine sold his truck to his neighbor's daughter.  It was her first vehicle, and of course it had a manual transmission..

I guess she was so frazzled trying to drive in Duluth, she parked it and took a cab home.  My friend realizing how upset she was, bought it back from her.

Did you know Sandy's a switch hitter? It's true. He can't hit from both sides.

I get your point, but good hitting teams will feast on most pitching staffs.  That's what makes them good hitting teams!

So he's due!

Haven't been there (winter or summer), but I'd love to. Plans were to go a couple summers ago, but a family emergency arose when we were midway through the Michigan Upper Peninsula. Hope to try again sometime.  

If you go in summer, I believe you'll like it.

The upper peninsula is beautiful.  We spent several summers there, as well as a couple of summers on Washington Island.  You can't describe, you have to experience it.

Agreed.  Plus Mackinac Island is a neat place, too.

Why doesn't rocco stretch some of these relievers out, a bit.  So many times a guy will come in, dominate on just a few pitches, then get pulled.  You run the risk of running out of quality pitching the longer the game progresses.  If we should make the post season, the ability to keep your bullpen strong is important.  There's none of that sill 2nd base crap in the post season if the game is tied after regulation.

We went around Lake Michigan one summer, with most of the time in the UP. The other time we made it to Munising before needing to get back home.

Sorry for reading too much into The plural possessive pronoun "our".

Anyway, all's well that makes it half way through well.

No problem.  I've been guilty of that on this forum more than once myself.

There appeared to be some nice smaller towns in the UP when I was up there earlier this year.  Munising being one of them.

We loved the locks, followed by the burgers from Clyde's Drive-In. 

Would like to get up to the Sault again sometime.  Been so long ago, I only have very faint recollections of being there.

I saw Elton twice in St. Paul. Halloween (1974?) with young Elton and in the Face-to-Face tour with Billy Joel (much more mature Elton) in about 2006. 

Get the **** out. I was at the St Paul Civic Center for Elton. 74 or 75. Snowstorm on the way home. Ended up spending the night at a farmer's house, couldn't make it home.

Loved the locks. Really enjoyed the Shipwreck Museum. Excellent lighthouses.

But probably the biggest highlight was the Toonerville Trolley and a long boat ride to Tahquamenon Falls.
