Crane Festival





Yes, we went to a (Sandhill) Crane Festival today near Battle Creek. Jonathon has a way of finding out about these obscure things. It was actually a lot of fun. They had vendors there, hayrides, a nature hike, etc. The whole point was to watch the cranes flying and landing in the water (it was in a wetland area). This is their prime season. It was very crowded with bird watchers from everywhere.

The best part was Erich is feeling so much better and had a great time. The air was crisp, the leaves are turning; it was great fall weather. Then we went to Turkeyville, which is an interesting place. We had a turkey dinner and saw turkeys, goats, and a calf. Erich was a little freaked out by the goats who we were feeding weeds. We are just trying to soak up the precious moments we have with Jonathon before he leaves on Monday.
