Wow July is over already?

Fun in Frankenmuth
We had the opportunity to spend a few days in Frankenmuth, Michigan. This was my first time here, so of course we had to do what everybody does – eat a chicken dinner. We chose Zehnder’s over the Bavarian inn. The meal was very good although if I’m being honest the chicken was probably a…
