Back to the Sword Shop
 

IN a few days were leaving for one of my favorite states. Michigan. Yea I know. That was unexpected. Well to give you some insight, my family lives up there and I have some traditions that I like to continue and fulfill. First we go see Grandma and make sure shes doing alright and if were lucky maybe my cousin. My cousin doesn't make appearances when were there but you never know what can happen. From there we go to Mackinaw City to stay in a state park called Wilderness. Its quite nice and its away from most people. Not only that but its got beaches that are right along the great lakes. Very popular but very beautiful. 

Then we spend a day walking around and going to Mackinaw City and Mackinaw Island. We like to go to this place called Enchanted Knights and every time I go there the guy remembers em and is always trying ot give me a job. It will happen by the way. I will get a chance to work there, I just have to get my bus going first. At this store they sell a lot of fun and interesting things. From fairy statues, to T-Shirts, to knives, to swords. Every year I always go and buy a sword that is different. By that I mean, swords that have hidden compartments in their sheathes. 

The guy who is always there knows that I am always looking for unique pieces so he specifically looks for them so that when I come up there I can pick one and take it home. Sometimes I buy extra things, like little knives, letter openers, throwing knives, etc. I highly enjoy being in the store and I want to buy so much more when I am there. Its so magical and the atmosphere is the best. 

Once were done there we go to the island so that we can go to the butterfly shop and buy some butterfly pieces. I know that some people find that butterflies are very strange and they get weirded out. For me though I like to Collect them to remind me that I am in a new chapter of my life. Not only that one of my names back in the days of Earthbound was Groovy Butterfly and my Mom (who's name was also MotherSpirit) always talks about how I have evolved and have become such a beautiful women who has come out of her shell. She gave me the name Groovy Butterfly and I cherish it always. 

I am so excited to go back and to see all the beauty this state has once more. ITs going to be so amazing and of course this year I will be recording our adventure up there so I can share this amazing place with you all.
