Social Calendar: Clark Boys Visit Huron County

Mr. Griffin Henry Clark, known to his family as Finn, enjoyed a week in Huron County with his maternal grandparents, Edwin and Wanda Eichler. The Eichlers entertained Mr. Clark at their lakeside home south of Harbor Beach where their grandson resided with them.

Mr. Clark took numerous naps, enjoyed many highchair feeding hours, and played extensively with blocks, small animals, and wiffle balls. Occasionally Mr. Clark escaped the view of both grandparents and attempted to climb steps. While he did negotiate one or two stairs, usually his grandfather or grandmother rescued him from any further nonsense.


Mr. Clark's brother, Maxwell, stayed in Huron County for the same week, too. The elder Mr. Clark resided in Bad Axe with his paternal grandparents, Donald and Joni Clark, at their Huron Avenue residence. When interviewed by his father following the almost weeklong stay, Maxwell was heard to say that the pool was the absolute best thing about the week. Maxwell and his father, John Ryan Clark, did venture out to the Huron Community Fair on the day of the deluge. They returned from their midway adventure with very muddy feet.


The Clark boys are frequent visitors to Huron County this summer. Both of their parents are natives of Huron County. The boys' mother, Liesl Eichler Clark, grew up on a farm south of Pigeon and met their father, John Ryan Clark, at county high school extracurricular activities.
