Day 411 – August 6th 2023

We are up at 7:30 this morning and off the dock around 8:00. It is an easy cruise in wide open water. We officially cross back into the USA around 11:00 am. We are back!!! Canada was fun but I’m glad to be back in the USA!!!! We are in DeTour Village, Michigan. Richard made steak, corn, and sweet potato for dinner.

Back in US waters!

Day 412 – August 7th 2023

Today there is not a lot happening. Some friends are arriving this afternoon and this will mark the end of their journey!!! They will officially cross their wake!!!

Around 2:00 a few of us gathered on the dock as they arrived and cheered for them as they reached this milestone!!!! It was exciting and they were very happy. The boat was Leave It To Wally — Devin and Dolly.

We later went to dinner with them and a few others Karma and Shenanigans. It was a fun night. After dinner Richard and I left and walked back to the boat. We left the others who were still drinking at the restaurant.

Day 413 – August 8th 2023

We are up early today and ready to leave the dock at 8:00 am. We are cruising in wide open water today as we have to cross Lake Huron. Today we are going to Cheboygan, Michigan. This is a side trip because it is time to find a Walgreens and refill our prescriptions. Ain’t life grand!

We arrived at 12:30 pm. We got fuel and a pump out when we arrived. Richard cooked hamburgers and corn on the cob for dinner. He did our laundry. Later, we watched the Astros and went to bed.

  1. We know you are going to love macinac Island as we did. Carriage ride up to the grand hotel is the way to go. It’s an all uphill walk. They make you pay 10$ a person to go inside but drinks on the terrace was worth it. Hope the weather is co operating for you. Hugs, Nancy
