WE MADE IT: We’re back in Traverse City! Party’s over, “2013 Summer Hellride” enthusiasts! We’re home and on the couch with mom and dad. Phew.

This morning we scoured the Mackinac Bridge area…St. Ignace and Michilmackinac…looking for deadstock. One lady took pity on us and gave Leigh an Old Castle Rock sticker. As commander of the ship, I made her give it to me. Otherwise, we came up dead short. Damn.

We’re home and that’s that. Now I have to work and Leigh has to go lay on some beach. Something to that effect.
