August fun times.

Denny and I went to Michigan in August for the annual Hanley reunion hosted by Jack and Denise, Denny's brother and sister-in-law.  There were many family members and old friends present and a good time was had by all. We headed to Northern Michigan and visited many of the small towns along lake Michigan, what a beautiful area.  Stayed with Al and Jan Bersted for one night, they are long time friends of Denny and enjoyed a meal that was prepared by Al that was so delicious right down to the homemade Italian ice cream.  Of course a trip to Michigan wouldn't be complete without a visit to Conor O'Neills an Irish pub in Ann Arbor where many of Denny's friends gather on Sunday night to hear Irish music and share conversation. Stayed with Marie and Tony Kilbane our last night. We visited Tony's mom while we were in Ireland in April.
