I am now a Townie...Again



So Grand Rapids isn;t that bad. We learned that we sort of like this place, even through it is uncanny like a young Sacramento, down to having a store eerily like Compton’s Market. It just much smaller and friendlier. So far we managed to hang out with Bob’s co-workers and catch a ’80’s cover band at a club.

We also joined Grand Rapids Arts Museum (GRAM). Its a lovely place with Alexander Calder showing for the rest of the month. We are looking forward to seeing the Princess Diana exhibit that is coming in the fall. We will check out the Public Museum and the President Ford Museum in the coming weeks.

As for now we are off to Chicago to check out that side of the country. Since its only 3 hours away we will map out our stay and shop at Whole Foods. That is one of things I miss most about Seattle. Well that and city life. But I can be a townie for while again until Bob gets another adventure in his head. Until then......
