We've started our trip back from Michigan. We had a great time while in Michigan, visiting family members on both sides as well as some old friends. We visited both the Gerald R. Ford Museum (in Grand Rapids) and his Library (in Ann Arbor), as well as one of the city museums in Grand Rapids as well as sculpture and botanical garden.

We spent last night in Rockford, IL, with a friend and left early this morning. We stopped and visited the Ulysses S. Grant home and museum in Galena, IL. Then we stopped at the movie set where they filmed the movie "Field of Dreams". Then this afternoon we stopped at the Herbert Hoover Presidential Library in West Branch, IA. We're stopped in Des Moines for the night. Tomorrow we head to York, NE, for the eclipse but on the wya out of the Des Moines area we plan to stop see the "Bridges of Madison County".

We made it to Marion, IL, our last night on the road. Our visit to to Clinton Library was great. We spent better than four hours there seeing all the displays and even had lunch there (so far it was the best food we've had on the trip so far and the cost was very reasonable considering the level of the service and the quality of the decor).

Tomorrow we make it to our destination, the home of my wife's sister in Adrian, MI.
