The day was gray and spitting rain, but the bridge went up and we were on our way home to finish up last minute details before we leave on or extended adventure.
Walt seeing us off |
We are in Lake Michigan headed North |
ran the quantlet of fishing boats |
sky turn bright blue and we had some wind - 3.3 kts for a while |
you see things floating in the lake - up close these are two Mylar balloons - one shaped like a star |
after 2 in the afternoon before we finally saw another boat |
Tom learning how to set up our chart plotter |
Wind fell off so Tom set whisker pole and we sailed for a while wing to wing. Got us to 3 + knots for another hour or two then wind fell off again. |
Entering Holland Channel |
sun setting, temps are cool- good sleeping weather. Strange to think we won't be back this way for a long time. |
