Our niece, Angela, great nephew, Charlie, great nieces, Allie and Anna(and yes that is actually blue sky behind them)
Our trip this morning to Manistee was a short one of 23 miles. We came into the inlet and eventually made our way up the narrow Manistee River which runs through the town. We had to pass under several bridges including one at 22' in height. To do this we had to take down our antennas - something we haven't had to do since the Trent Severn Waterway. Many eyes were watching as we went under the bridge and cleared it successfully. We docked at Seng's Marina on the lake, and made ready for our visitors: Angela, the children, and Angela's mother, Linda. After snack-time aboard, we were invited to have dinner at Linda and Joe Dahm's lovely "carriage house" on their 14 acre property over-looking Lake Michigan. We couldn't believe that they built the house themselves, and the décor is perfect. Since their family continues to expand, we suspect that more buildings might be built on the property - a wonderful location for a family compound! They are warm and gracious hosts, the dinner was delicious, and we really enjoyed the time we were able to spend with all of them!
