Happy Birthday, Bill
After 4 days of high winds and strong gusts, we finally have pleasant weather for safe cruising. The lake is rather calm – 1 to 2 ft. We’re planning on a few very long travel days to make up for the days lost due to the weather. Will try and make it as far south as possible today, either Muskegon or Grand Haven and tomorrow to South Haven or Benton Harbor. Jacque, unfortunately, will have to leave us at one of these ports and we will miss her terribly. But, her hubby, Bill, has been a very good sport and misses her. There is also another minor point ---- she has to go back to work (yuck!). She's a very good skipper and deck hand but will need more practice----she will have to come back again.
While we were in Ludington, waiting on the weather, we kept ourselves busy walking the town over and over, went to the beach a couple of times just 1/4 quarter mile away (yes, the water was quite chilly), watched the ferry (S/S Badger) come into port and leave on its run between Ludington and Manitowac. Also took a 3mile hike to Walmart for some supplies. And, as usual, enjoyed our happy hours.
