4th of July

Of all the years that I've been to 4th of July parades, this is the first time I've gotten a pint of ice cream! Al and I split it. There is a wholesale ice cream distributor, House of Flavors, in Ludington and they gave out thousands of pints of ice cream at the parade. Otherwise, the parade was typical. For $50 each you can board the S.S. Badger car ferry and travel up and down the coast from 9-11 p.m.. You can watch fireworks from the deck. We checked on tickets and all 600 were sold!
