Welcome


Welcome.

I created this blog to document the sights of our boating season
for our family and friends to follow.

Enjoy the tour.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY USA!
Another busy EXTENDED weekend :-). 

I arrived at the boat yesterday afternoon and was busy doing...nothing.

Up early this morning by the light of the silvery moon and westward to the fishing grounds.

The lake was a bit sloppy, making it difficult to get many photos and the ones I did get weren't the best, but it was an awesome 4th of July sunrise over the Lake Michigan dunes.

I caught and released 5 salmon this morning and then headed dockside.  The first order of business was new batteries.  I discovered a dead one this morning.  Not the best way to start the day.

After the battery issue was taken care of, I strolled into town for the annual Independence Day parade.
The parade was kicked off with a fly over of a B17 bomber.  Rides were available on the plane this morning.

Parade color guard.

The high school marching band.

And the most important man in the parade.

...at least to those behind him.  Yes that's the pooper scooper.

Back to the boat to decorate for the evening fireworks festivities in the harbor.

With the extensive decorating completed, time to head to the beach for a swim and cool off.

OK.  Checked all the boxes for today.  Time to relax and wait for the show at dark.
