To start off the day of July 6, our family (minus Grandpa and my brother Marshal) went to play tennis at a local court. Sadly, we had a very hard time finding the thing. First we asked someone at the bookstore, and thought that was the end of that. We spent a lot of time looking for the courts, and were unsuccessful. Then we went to a gas station/food market and asked where the tennis courts were. The lady’s reply was, “Right behind my store.” We forgot to ask her how far away she considered “Right behind my store” to be.
We then spent 15 minutes looking around and promptly went back to the gas station. We asked someone different where we could find the tennis courts, and finally found the place, about half a mile from the gas station. We had a good time playing tennis, and found our way home a whole lot easier than we did getting there.
Then we walked to Lake Charlevoix. This time, it was just me (I know it should be “I”, but it doesn’t sound as good), my little bother, Davis, and my parents. We continued making our humongous sand castle that has survived three days of little kids and lake water. Now, that is quality.
After naptime, we went to a different beach, Lake Michigan. This lake is more like an ocean, with big waves and deeper waters. Lake Charlevoix has virtually no waves and is very shallow, but the sand is better for building castles. I prefer Lake Michigan over Lake Charlevoix. Lake Michigan has lots of cool rocks around the shore, too. We spent most of the time playing my brothers’ favorite game, Get Mimi. Basically, they try to beat me up, but I guess you could say that they just pretend like they’re going to.
During the car ride home, Davis and Marshal were talking about how cool it would be if they had twins. They said I would have no chance when they played Get Mimi. That’s what they talked about the whole time. I guess they assumed that twins are exactly the same person, but there are two of them. It really doesn’t make sense, and is completely unrealistic. Brothers these days.
