3/19/2021 Roscommon, MI It’s 2am and nobody calls me, even though I’m still awake. I guess I have different friends than Alanis Morissette. Gob and I roll into our campsite, which I have reserved online in an overabundance of caution. Of course, there is nobody else there.

W.J. Hayes State Park
2/22/2021 Onsted, MI Tired of Gob moping and pouting that he had missed our last adventure, I agreed to take him for a little trip of his own.
