Abby had visitors this week. Abby's Aunt Hannah and Uncle Dan stopped in on their way home from Minnesota. We had a good time visiting with them and taking them to the tourist traps down by the Soo Locks. We also took them to The Antlers and took Abby's picture with a deer in the background and by the polar bear.
This is a sample of the great collection at The Antlers - or The Redneck Zoo as I've dubbed it. There are lots and lots of scary dead things, but Abby is only afraid of sitting under the birch bark canoe. She likes looking around at the rest of the critters.
Here's Abby and her Uncle Dan with a polar bear and a golden eagle. Abby was looking at the two-headed calf rather than looking at the camera.
We went downtown to the Soo Locks park, which is bounded on all sides by shops and hotels and restaurants. While we were in the park we saw this porcupine, which Dan decided to chase so he could be in the picture with it. Another wild "only in the UP" moment. Today Abby and I are cleaning up and getting ready for Grandma Great Jennie and Grandpa Great Steve to come over! We are going to have a lot of fun.
