sunset junque shop

Along the coast of Lake Michigan where our family has had a cabin for 32 years there are beaches and blueberries and vineyards and sunsets.




But one of my favorite Michigan spots since I was a girl is the Sunset Junque Shop. This quirky little side road joint is part antique shop, part freak show, part junk yard, part museum, part treasure chest. It always makes me happy that I don't own a house when I go here, or I might walk out with a very empty wallet and all kinds of crazy junk (or junque!)










The kids had fun exploring here with their cousins, well Naia napped in the car the whole time but Zach always loves this place.



Back home now and recovering from 1700+ miles of driving with the 2 kids in my wee Honda Civic all while trying to deny that I was sick as a dog. Ends up I have bronchitis. Blah. So happy to be back on the boat and moping around in my own little floating home while I recover.

Holding you up to the Universal Healing Power and hoping it cures soonest. A few memories made, hopefully, altho 1700 is an awful lot... You're a Good Mom.

I hope you're feeling better soon. What fabulous junque! Lots of possibilities, to be sure. :)

Ohhhhhh so so sorry you picked up that bronchial thing. Our family has been passing it around for almost 6 weeks now. The cough stays with you forever. Best wishes for your recovery. We're hoping to see you guys sometime while we're in Annapolis. The boat launches at Oak Harbor in about 3 weeks.

Why would you want a house when you can just take pictures of it all? Pictures are much lighter! Sorry you're feeling sick. Traveling when sick absolutely sucks. And then add kids into the mix. And then driving? Well, you know, you just did it! Wishing you a fast healing and lots of honey lemon tea. xo

I completely missed this post. What a fun place. And as for the mask that Z found, I figured that was back at the cabin along with old Star Wars sheets! So glad that it ended up being bronchitis versus a stomach flu and that you're back to floating and getting well.

:)
