Chippy
Chippy hangs out on the firepit in front of the cabin at Sunset Bay in the Keweenaw Peninsula Michigan. That special cabin I need to go every year at least for a couple days. I will turn 60 on Lake Superior and go body surfing naked!
Hope Chippy is still there, we feed him lots of peanuts and he likes to hang with us! I'll probably be offline for a week..catch up with everyone then:))))
