It Has Begun!

YEA!

We left the dock in Charlevoix in fog and misting rain on June 20th. Since the northern Great Lakes are cool, fog is a frequent morning visitor. As the day progressed, the winds held steady and the weather turned sunny. We zoomed (can you imagine a sailboat zooming?) passed Beaver Island (Hi Davi) and Mackinac Island (Hi Joan), through the straits between Lake Michigan and Lake Huron and entered the waters of the second largest of the Great Lakes - Huron.

  1. Sure would love to have met you for coffee as you passed Mackinac Island. (Our slips are empty here too. Makes me really glad they didn't do that huge marina expansion they wanted to do a few years ago!!) Hope your trip is GREAT!! I love this Blog. Can't wait to see pictures. Sure do miss you!!!!!!!!
