The Quad Squad took their 1st trip of the year.
We left on June 10 (my birthday) and headed home on June 14th.
Our destination was Munising MI
We left an hour after the boys got home from their last day of school.
We hitched a ride with G-pa & G-ma Buckner. Riding in style in the motor home, pulling our trailer with the quads in it.
here is the first stop...a rest area
We left our campsite about 11am on Saturday morning for our first ride
Here we are enjoying lunch...that first day was a bit cold so we are bundled up pretty good!
Troy in all his gear
This is the first year I have drove my own quad...I normally ride on the back of Steve's. Tyler, sadly could not go, as he had just started a job at Steelcase...so, I had to drive so Trent could ride with Steve.
I believe I like it!!!!!!
G-pa Neil and Trent..he rode with G-pa & Steve
We had a potluck dinner to celebrate my birthday on Saturday night.
This is what camping is all about!!!!
...and this....campfires!

We are family!
What would a trip be without some break downs.
Believe it or not G-pa drug that pail of cement out of the weeds so use...God is good!
after Au train we headed to Christmas MI...it's a fun little town..all the streets are named Christmas names...Candy Cane Lane, Holly, St Nicholas, Santa Claus....you get the idea. I purchased a Christmas ornament that says...Christmas Michigan.

The Buckner's turn
THEN came the mud!!
That's Kelly on the quad, Steve by her..and well Daren...I have no idea????
Troy Stuck!
G-pa pulling Troy out...Oops..went on it's side
Florin lives for this!
Our Big accomplishment of the trip....G-pa got his Can-Am Outlander stuck....
Steve got stuck too...as a matter of fact he was so stuck it took Daren, Craig & G-pa Neil to pull him out!
And their was some accidents along the way.....
I thought this was a funny picture....the kids are sitting on the bank enjoying the show...
The adults headed to the Dogpatch for dinner...we clean up pretty good!!!
On our way home from dinner we stopped by Munising Falls.
Yeah that's Steve and Daren up behind the falls.
I guess they didn't see that sign that stated not to go behind the falls because it is unsafe!!!??
Awww..Steve & Joanne
Monday morning by the Wandering Wheels sign...we had 12 quads...Awesome!
This is why we go...cousins!
Troy & Florin
Trent & I at the Bridge Look out...you all know the one...across from McDonalds in St Ignace.
Like Trent's cap?...well it's actually mine...Neil bought it for me at Biff's Surplus...awww....wasn't that sweet of him.. in spite of all my harassing of him...he still loves me!
We had another successful trip..we plan to head back in September before school starts.
Life doesn't get better than these bragging rights!
