Our Koffee Trail: 2nd & Main Coffeehouse

Date of Visit: September 13, 2024

Location: 2nd & Main Coffeehouse, Niles, MI

Mom and Dad visited 2nd & Main Coffeehouse to kill time waiting for their appointment at the DMV for the boat registration.

Mom had coffee flight that included Iced Apple Pie Latte, Iced Pumpkin Brown Sugar Latte, Maple Cheesecake Cold Brew, and Iced Pumpkin Chai. Her favorite was the Maple Cheesecake Cold Brew. She now thinks we should stop here every time we go to the cottage.

Dad had an Oat Milk Flat White.

Ranger Dan: 106.2 Theodore Roosevelt National Park - South Unit

Date of Visit: June 16, 2024

Dad and I visited the South Unit of Theodore Roosevelt National Park in the morning before the visitor center was open. I sketched Theodore Roosevelt's Maltese Cross Cabin. We also drove some of the scenic drive and saw buffalo and prairie dogs. We had done the drive when we last visited Medora in 2007. Thus, we only spent enough there for the visitor center to be open and get the passport stamp (this was where I got my first National Park Passport and starting collecting the stamps in 2007), so we could have enough time to then play mini golf and do the Enchanted Highway that day.
