Following our ride through Germfask, we had a great dinner and boat ride with our Warmshowers hosts, Gary and Jan Barrett.

Kim and I departed Seney this morning and jumped on Michigan State Highway 77 South. We enjoyed a pig-out lunch at the Jolly Inn located in Germfask, and then hopped on a very aptly named "Ten Curves Road" heading east.

An interesting town

Two hours of hills and one mile of gravel road later, we arrived at the beautiful home of our Warmshowers hosts for the evening - Gary and Jan Barrett. They fed us Japanese Curry with rice, followed by hot, gooey fudge brownies covered in vanilla ice cream. Then we enjoyed a pontoon boat ride on Lake Manistique before turning in for the evening. I love my life.
