“Grand Illusion”

Grand Rapids, MI
October 31 – November 7, 2022

Another city, another Presidential Museum. This time we visited the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Museum. The museum was pretty large and had cool exhibits. Like most presidential museums, it was self guided and this museum was very informative. We watched a movie that contained numerous facts about President Ford’s life. Overall, I really liked the museum.

One of the days we were in town, we took a walk in downtown Grand Rapids. The weather was not very cooperative, because it was cold the whole time we were here.

We stopped in a couple of breweries. The first was a local brewery called Two Guys, which was fun. Of course we visited Founder Brewing Company, which is well known. I liked the beer at Founders.

Our next stop is Berrien Springs, Michigan which is just north of Elkhart Indiana, and then on to Elkhart.
