Our 2^nd stop was back in Michigan, in Pittsford to be exact, at D & S Lounge- owned by Dave Dow. It’s a friendly little tavern frequented by locals, some of whom were a little shocked to see 50+ people walk through the door on a Saturday afternoon. But there was plenty of room for us and after an hour of listening to some jams on the jukebox (I think they still call it that even though it has CD’s instead of 45’s) we got back on the bus and headed for our 3^rd stop.

The Hillsdale American Legion has a beautiful view as it sits on Baw Beese Lake. If you’re a Legion Member it really is worth the drive to Hillsdale just to take in the scenery. By now the sun was shining and even though it was cold outside, everybody was having fun. I mean who can resist a swing set even if it’s only 17 degrees out?

Our last stop was at the Highland Inn at Manitou Beach, MI next to Round Lake. After some good food, people couldn’t resist moving to the music on the dance floor. I think everyone had a great time and there were requests for having more than one Booze Cruise per year. If I were you I’d sign up early for the next one!

Thanks to the AMVETS Riders and everyone who participated to make this another great event from Randy P. Hill AMVETS Post 1957.
