30th August 2017
This was my rest day, the sun was shining, when Kelli opened the garage door. As it rumbled open she added, “There are a few projects for you in here”
As the sun lit up what met my eyes, my immediate reaction was “Shit!” The garage was full of stuff, bits of furniture in various state dis-repair, bits of pallet wood (my favourite) and things I didn’t immediately recognise.
” And what will you actually do?” I quipped. “Well I will add the touches that will make the pieces sell”. She joked, and closed the garage door.
I had to go to the beach, it had been so long since I saw it last. The water was clear, and the boats were out on the big lake, burbling clear of the Macatawa Lake entrance before hitting the gas, and lifting dangerously against the waves before speeding into the distance.
Although I love watching the boats, I’m not someone who would want to own one. Unless I needed one to get places, they are an expensive recreational toy.
Part of the fun of the place, is that I can use my bike to get about. It is flat, and easy to navigate around.
In the evening Kelli and I went to the New Holland Brewery for some dinner. This is a ritual we have done since the place first opened. Some of the craziest stories have been shared at this place, and the beer is so good.
