Visit to Michigan to see our daughter

We went out to Grand Rapids, Michigan to visit our daughter at college.  It was a nice visit.  We toured a coffee brewery, Gerald Ford Museum, the Grand Rapids Public Museum and went on a Fall Color Tour.

My husband excluded me from visiting my daughter.  When we would walk, I would be behind them.  Grandted I was slow due to my foot surgery, but he could have gone ahead or behind us.  We did things he wanted to do, but didn't get to do the things I did.  Our meals were for him and if not he complained.  I wish I had stayed home, but of course not work.

The Gerald Ford Museum was great.  I learned so much.  We didn't see it all as we needed to have lunch.  The Public Musem was great also.  We didn't see everything there either, it was huge.  It had normal exhibits and also the history of Grand Rapids.  We did go to a apple orchard hoping to get apple donuts.  We waited in line for about fifteen minutes only to be told they didn't have any.  We started out on the fall color tour which was beautiful.  But, we got to the end of a road where there was to have been a bridge, but no bridge.  There was a small river so we couldn't cross.  We tried to find our way around to the other side but it didn't happen.  We then took the GPS way back to the hotel.  The leaves were beautiful so we did get that.

Here are a couple of pictures from the trip.
