Summertime in Michigan means four-wheeling at Silver Lake State Park.
But we need to get there first. Five miles away from the dunes, Drew's jeep ran out of gas. Thankfully, one of the asparagus farms gave us a gallon of petro and saved the day.
Hop in the backseat as we enter Silver Lake State Park.
Up the big hill we went, like twenty-five times. Unsucessful we were, like twenty-four times. Here we totter, high-centered on the dune, hoping gravity doesn't flip us like a big turtle.
Luckily, another good samritan came along and yanked us off our precarious pearch.
Our tire tracks plow deeper and deeper....
Time to let more air out of the tires.
Drew basks in the moment of victory.
Next sand ridge over, dirt bikers conduct their own gravity tests.
Tom Petty and his awesome cadre of musicians known as the Hearbreakers played the Palace of Auburn Hills last night. As always, he put on a great show. The setlist included many favorites not played on recent tours:
You Wreck Me You Don't Know How It Feels I Won't Back Down Even the Losers Saving Grace Mary Jane
Sweet William End of the Line The Waiting Straight into Darkness Spike Face in the Crowd Learning to Fly Don't Come Around Here No More Refugee Running Down a Dream Mystic Eyes American Girl
Here's a RR short clip from the Petty show, for your enjoyment:
