The wind continued to blow out of the west today on Little Traverse Bay with waves on Lake Michigan predicted to be in the 3 - 5 foot range. George had hoped that we would have a window of opportunity to leave for Northport between 11a.m. and 1p.m., but that break didn't happen. However, we still held out hope that we could leave tomorrow for Leland, a port farther down the coast, as we want to get to Manistee on Thursday to meet with our nephew Chris' wife, Angela, their children, Charlie, Allie, and Anna, and Angela's parents, Joe and Linda Dahm, who have a vacation home and property there. Unfortunately Chris had to return to work in Richmond, so we will miss seeing him.
In order to not only make this visit, but also to make it to Holland next week so that we can return home from there, it seems that we will have to skip some of the places we had planned to visit before this weather cycle interfered. To cheer ourselves up, we entertained our new Michigan friends, Dan and Mary Jo, aboard our boat tonight with a "Bon Voyage Party". They, too, are hoping to leave here tomorrow.
