As the ferry boat made its way out of the harbor, we were treated to an exceptional display of color. It grew from yellow to orange to red, more vivid with each passing minute.
Saturday morning, we left the dock before dawn to attempt to catch a salmon in the nearshore waters as the sun rose.
That plan failed so we moved a few miles offshore and found the fish there to be a bit more cooperative. Total catch for the morning was four king salmon and one coho.
The northern edge of the weather system that was Hurricane Isaac was near Ludington all day. We ventured out in the dinghy for an evening view of the sunset.
As the sun dipped below the horizon, the rosy sky provides a backdrop for some evening anglers.
The line of clouds provided a dramatic evening scene.
And again, the evening passengers on the Badger are treated to another Lake Michigan sunset.
Sunday found warm and breezy conditions so the boat remained tied to the dock. Sailboats were the vehicle of choice with today's winds.
A little early morning fishing from the dinghy, lunch at the brew pub, and finally a swim in the harbor to cool down. It is unusually warm for September. I don't remember actually swimming in the harbor this time of year in the past, but it is warm.
Yes, it is warm. Kathy actually got wet.
Tomorrow, we'll try to get out for a couple hours of angling before heading back home.
