Four Down and Four to Go in Marine City, Mich. -- Part II

I wrote last time about our first week playing Marine City's The Snug Theatre with "My Dearest Friend." We were very pleased with the critical review from Encore Michigan and the audience reaction to this wonderful historic play by Mary G. Kron. Since we opened, word of mouth has accelerated reservations for this coming week! Thank you to all who enjoyed the show! Tickets are going fast, but good seats are still available for all shows, online or by calling 810-278-1749.
But, there is more to do in our thumb area besides attend the theatre!

Last Friday, Mary Beth, her Mom,  and Step , and I took the Blue Water Ferry across the St. Clair river to Sombra, Ontario, Canada for lunch at The Aft Cabin and a little shopping. Sombra has only about 250 residents, but the little town is charming and the food at The Aft Cabin was delicious! While in Sombra, I located the local historical museum, where I'm told a car owned by Al Capone for bootlegging is on display. Our older companions weren't up for the tour, so I didn't get to find out for myself -- maybe this week.

Saturday was bright and sunny and so Mary Beth and I took the opportunity to indulge in another of our passions -- visiting lighthouses! Michigan is home to more than a hundred lighthouses and we've been to a lot of them, but our trip to the Fort Gratiot Lighthouse in Port Huron ranks as one of our best experiences.
