We took the train from Dover, NJ to Penn Station, NY. We went to the Anne Frank House Exhibit at The Center For Jewish History in New York City. Once entering the exhibit you were not allowed to take pictures. The exhibit was extraordinary, and well worth seeing. It not only went through her life and death, their life in hiding, but also the history of Hitler and the rise if the Nazi Party. They were hiding in the factory that Mr. Frank formally ran behind a wall and bookcase. They could only use the bathroom when no one was in the factory. Unfortunately, after being arrested Mrs. Frank was put to death at the camp she was sent to. Anne and her sister, Margot, both died of Typhus in their camp just before liberation. Otto Frank was rescued after the fall of the Nazis.

We arrived at the Wood Design parking lot where we stayed through Friday. Wood Design and JSC RV Repair put a dishwasher in our motor home. The dishwasher is wonderful and looks like the motor home came with it.

We left Nappanee and drove 60+ miles to Angola/Hogback Lake KOA. We visited with Michelle and Duane Sheffield. It was great seeing them again. Michelle made a kick-ass chuck roast with veggies for dinner.

We left Angola, IN and drove to the Wayne County Fairgrounds in Belleville, MI. We toured around the area until we went to a fantastic restaurant called The Grand Traverse Pie Company in Ann Arbor, MI on 9/18/2025. Dave’s cousin, Laurel Federbush, played her harp there. Friday, Laurel came to visit us at the motor home. We had a great visit. She joined us for dinner at Ruby Tuesday.
