... So I Drove Her To The Nuthouse
The Fourth of July weekend was interesting for us. Tina had recently gotten her learner's permit for driving, so she was practicing (not that she doesn't know how to drive; she's been driving for decades... She just needs practice driving on the "right" side of the road, LOL). Couple that with my desire to show her various places in the great state of Michigan, and it's no surprise that Saturday afternoon eventually found us in the little town of Hell...
Here's Tina enjoying a cup of coffee at the Dam Site Inn, the only bar in Hell...
There is a very teeny tiny chapel in Hell, too...
We did see a couple who had just gotten married there, though we didn't see the actual wedding. Believe me, the wedding party would've filled the chapel up; your average shed is bigger than that.
We also mailed out a couple of post cards from the Hell Post Office, which is inside the Hell General Store... They take a lighter and singe your mail around the edges before it goes out (although you could decline that service... but where's the fun in that?).
There is a dam in Hell... (do you mean to tell me that you couldn't see that coming from a mile away?)
By the way... before you ask... yes, it was hot as Hell that day.
The next day, Sunday, started out with a real, old-fashioned 4th of July parade in Whitmore Lake, Tina's first...
After that, we wandered around for a while, and eventually wound up at The Nuthouse...
... a sports bar in Lansing. (NOTE: This is not my photo.)
It was pretty good food, but what I really liked was the name... Needless to say, we felt right at home.
