So Friday was my niece's 12th birthday and she came to town to visit for a while. It was nice to hang out with her and my sister along with my sister's boyfriend. I work so much and don't really make enough excuses to make time for myself so this was a great excuse to just forget about work for a while and reconnect with family!
Anyway I was thinking of my Steemit family during my afternoon away and thought I'd share some pictures with you!
So I live in the small town of Sault Sainte Marie in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. I can see our Canadian sister city across the St. Mary from my apartment. There's really nothing to do here but my town is home to the Soo Locks! I'll save you from raving about what to most is probably the most boring destination imaginable but feel free to check this link: http://www.saultstemarie.com/attractions/soo-locks/
Now to some pictures!
Those are all from a little 'museum' gift shop thing in the park around the Locks. The depth map of the Great Lakes make me think of 
We walked around the grounds a bit but it was crazy how many people were around so I didn't feel comfortable whipping out my silver. Whatever, I'm a wuss.
I was pretty shaken up after seeing that creepy hanging angel/voodoo doll so we went across the street to play some mini golf!!! It was a heated game between me and my sister's boyfriend because I was the winner last time they were in town and he's waited a few months for a rematch. And the son of a bitch beat me by five or six strokes. I'm ashamed of myself, but I beat my sister and niece pretty fiercely so I'm okay with that!
While it may not be the nicest course ever it does have some fun hole so and you can see downbound ships right across te street! After my humiliating defeat we had some Taco Bell. Then I went back to work, the end.
