Before we left on our trip, Jayden had been asking to have
her training wheels removed. I took them off before we left, and on our first
morning at camp she was out and about on two wheels. She had been riding on and
off around home without the aid of the training wheels, but they seem to be off
for good now.

Later in the day we rode our bikes 2 1/2 miles down the
Midland to Mackinac Trail into Mackinaw City...

After leaving the shopping area of town, we rode our bikes
down to Colonial Michilimackinac Park. Tyler and Samantha waded out into the
water to swim (Tyler with the kid's phone in his pocket), but Drew and Jayden
only walked out a little bit.
