Bar Louie in Ann Arbor.On Tuesdays they have a special on hamburgers that's hard to resist, a great deal and a nice atmosphere too.
Don't I look like a happy guy ? Why shouldn't I with my family and this scrumptious burger. I got mine with red onion, cheese, jalapeno and bacon.
My mom and I very happy being with each other. It's been a year that we last got together and enjoyed each other's company.You can tell by our smiles. 
The top Christmas stocking says Brad on it, it's another Brad, not me in case you were wondering.
This statue outside Cabela's is the largest bronze wildlife statue in the world.
Ann Arbor is a college town with many foreign exchange students and full of life and vitality.

I was so happy to find a card from Valance, a photo and letter and a Christmas card from Jenny, so neatly arranged in the packet.
Today I read it is Jenny's birthday and I want to wish here the best.
Check out her delightful Birthday Post !
Valance is my nephew and like I always say one can never have too much family !
I want to thank both my nephew Valance and my wonderful friend, Jenny.
Thank you, you added sparkle to my home coming.
Ann Arbor is about a 750 mile drive. I split it by staying in a motel and driving six hours, sleep, then six more hours in the morning.
A total of 1,500 miles to and fro and very exhausted as in the motel I only slept a few hours, so you can imagine my joy in receiving this surprise from Jenny and Valance.
Happy Birthday Jenny !
Happy Birthday Sarah Sofia.
