I can't believe it's already August! This summer is flying by. I've only brought fudge home twice. Much better statistics than last summer, but last summer I was pregnant. It wouldn't be fair to track the cravings of a mommy-to-be. Last year, I had the fun job of selling sweets in a candy shop. I learned how to make cotton candy and spent the day surrounded by candy. And air conditioning. Perfect for very pregnant me. This year, my primary job is Mommy to my 3-year-old and 9-month-old daughters.
We moved to Mackinac Island this May, and our adventure began! We rented a storage unit and limited our island belongings to what fits on a dray. Not fun. But a few months later we're still here. Still figuring out, but here nonetheless.
Sometimes I receive the question, do you work here or live here? ...Yes. And it's looking like we're going to stay through this winter. I realize there are a few hundred people who survive Mackinac Island winters every year. But I'm nervous; I respect these true, amazing year-rounders.
But for now it's still summer, and I mean to enjoy it!
I am loving your blog! I visited Mackinac every summer when I was younger, and my family and I just went back this October. Can I ask what your husband does? I think it'd be so neat to experience living on the island, but I don't know what I'd do for a living!
