We picked up the three grandchildren last Sunday evening and took them to our home for the night.\u00a0 The Monday we took them to the boat and had our first meal on board.\u00a0 Well, not quite on board as we ate at the yacht club pavillion.\u00a0 On the way up we stopped by the Kalamazoo Air Zoo and it was a lot of fun.\u00a0 Everyone enjoyed the Space Ball and the Flight Simulator.<\/p>\n
Tuesday morning we secured the ship and made our way to the open waters of Lake Michigan.\u00a0 Seas were 1 – 3 ft and winds of 15 knots and beautiful sunshine.\u00a0 It was a little cold and it did not take long for us to don our jackets.\u00a0 Dave and Mitch went forward for a while and then headed below where they intermittantly poped their heads up and slept some.\u00a0 Jake was in the cockpit reading.\u00a0 The waves were just rough enough to cause the First Mate to become a little queasy so we went in at about 1500 hrs local time.\u00a0 All in all itwas a great sailing day and I hope we generated some interest in\u00a0 sailing.<\/p>\n
Today we went to lookout sand dune and it was a windless just right temperature day.\u00a0 We could see about 50 miles out into the lake and there were a few sailboats just sitting there on the flat seas with no wind.\u00a0 The boys ran down the steps to the lake while we of little energy sat at the top of the hill.<\/p>\n
We have take several photos and video of the various events and we are now back in PL where they are kayaking right now or maybe fishing.\u00a0 Tomorrow we go down teh Pigeon Crick from Long Lake to Golden Lake takeout.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
