July 30th Lorain Ohio to Geneva State Marina 64 Miles

Today started off a little rocky. The slip we were in we could not back out of because of a large rock so forward we went and our dingy got hung up several time. I took us out while time stowed the dock lines so was unable to get photos of the herons or the harbor leaving. After a good breakfast we were able to sail for about two hours then the wind died as usual so we motored and decided to try for a long hop and get to Geneva State Marina. Old Cool worked like a charm and most of the day the wind and waves were at our back. Just before we reached the Perry Nuclear plant there was a switch and we slowed a little and nosed into two foot waves. A little water on deck but not rock-in and rolling like it was to Put-N-Bay. The Cleveland Skyline was pretty and there was one Huge house just East of Euclid the the Perry Power Plant that you could not ignore. We made it into the Marina no problems air conditioner running and all is well. 

almost looks like a submarine- but it isn't

have no idea what this is and could not find info on map

our route to Geneva

The Perry Nuclear Power Plant is located on a 1,100-acre (450 ha) site on Lake Erie, 40 miles (65 km) northeast of Cleveland in North Perry, Ohio, USA. The nuclear power plant is owned by First Energy Nuclear Operating Corporation.

Perry was the 100th power reactor licensed in the United States.

The reactor is a General Electric BWR-6 boiling water reactor design, with a Mark III containment design. The original core power level of 3,579 megawatts thermal was increased to 3,758 megawatts thermal in 2000, making Perry one of the largest BWRs in the United States.
