We had reserved a campground in Michigan for Wednesday (2nd night of our trip) based on its proximity to the Henry Ford Museum which we had planned to visit on Thursday. Instead, as I mentioned in my previous post, we spent Thursday visiting emergency rooms. Thursday was also the only day during our first week when it didn’t rain most of the day, just in the evening.
We camped Thursday night in the parking lot of the second emergency room. (Fortunately for us, and the local population I suppose, it wasn’t a busy hospital, so it was a quiet night.)
Friday afternoon I got my second (rapid) Covid test which was negative.
Because we had to hang around in the area till Sunday so Bob could get his antibody infusion (we hoped!), we went back to Wednesday’s campground for Friday and Shabbos. Not only was it near the Henry Ford Museum, it was on the beautiful shores of Lake Erie. It was also scenically located between the coal burning DTE Energy Monroe Power Plant and the Enrico Fermi II Nuclear Power Plant.
Straight ahead was a great view of the lake. Off to the side though, let me just say that we could always tell which way the wind was blowing.
Bob spent most of Shabbos sleeping while I read. Later in the afternoon, when it stopped raining for a while, I took a walk along the nature trail in the campground.
Sunday, Bob was able to get the infusion. Boruch Hashem. Sunday night we camped in the parking lot of that hospital.
Monday morning we headed off to a campground on the shores of Lake Huron.
To be continued…

The morning we left the rain had stopped. For a while. There was a great sunrise.
