News from the knuckle

If you hold your left hand out, palm down, and imagine that it is Michigan, you will find myself and Liza on the outer edge of the first finger, in the middle, at the knuckle. This is the town of Oscoda, and it is some small-town little vacation spot. It is on the very edge of Lake Huron, and it's very nice.

We have taken a little vacation, just a few days, after the launch of RealCatholicTV.com, which is excessively pimp. And you get to hear all about it.

It is about a three hour drive up to Oscoda, and en route we played a wonderful game. It is called Take Photographs of DK with Enormous Animals!

This was going to be Babe, but the big blue ox ran away .... and I only got Paul

Anyway, so we arrived at the hotel - and it is very nice. We are staying right on the shores of Lake Huron at the Huron House. Here is our room.





And here is the view from the little peep hole in the door.



We spent about an hour walking around Oscoda - and we had icecream. By cunning carving with a plastic spoon, I created this little version of the Washington Monument. Any other resemblance is purely co-incidental, I assure you.



After my frozen-daily replica of the world's tallest free-standing masonry structure, we went back to the hotel room and went into the hot tub and had champagne.





Life is hard, obviously.
