Tigers Win, and People We've Met

These kids kept standing up and blocking my view of the game.

Tigers Game Recap

We went to the Tigers/Indians game last night in Detroit. None of us had been to Comerica Park before, and it was very nice. The weather was perfect, the food was good, our seats were good, and the Tigers stomped the Indians 6-0. The Tigers, who have not been playing well lately, apparently saved up all their hits for this game, in which they had 16. A tip of the baseball cap to Thomson Reuters, which has an annual outing to the park for employees, and we got two of our tickets free, as well as “fun money” vouchers for food and merchandise. There were fireworks after the game ended, and it was a lot of fun.

The “Noah Genda”

During our vacation in Frankfort, we met a retired couple at the Betsie Bay Inn restaurant. They were docked at Betsie Lake, which is in Frankfort, connected to Lake Michigan by a small channel. They told us they were nearing the end of a long boat journey through the US; they have been down rivers, up the Atlantic, and through the Great Lakes. Their boat is called “Noah Genda” (read it out loud for it to make sense.) I Googled their boat name and found a log of their travels on this website. It’s a very interesting trip, and they were very nice people. Their entry about Frankfort is here.
