We arrived in Michigan on June 4th and traveled all the way up north to Afton where our friends Linda and Greg Bedson are building their dream house on 250 acres of land that have been in their family since the 1940's.  Linda's sister and brother-in-law, Nancy and Marty Ribar, were all there to greet us.  We stayed with them for two weeks.  During that time Rich, being the mensch that he is, helped Greg wire their new home "Silverleaf".  Rich, Greg and Marty ran close to a mile of wire in their beautiful new home.  We had a terrific time with them touring all over Northern Michigan.
