Lake Charlevoix

This place is like something out of a fairy tail. Massive boats! You can't even find Surona amongst these boats! Parking my boat is like driving between the office buildings in downtown Toronto. Nothing but white fiberglass on each side. The big one on the end of the dock has bumpers the size of a big dingy. I'm pretty sure I saw someone inside waiving me in but they didn't come out on deck so I guess they were too shy.
The weather is really hot! Nice breeze but we could handle some air conditioning on this boat. We got some great pictures of some incredible "fairy tale hobbit like homes"...flowers everywhere, of course the lady of the house obviously takes her gardening seriously, not just leaving it for her husband to do.
We are still waiting for the next day we can stick Surona's nose out into Lake Michigan. Whoever said that the prevailing winds here come out of the southwest wasn't kidding! Those five footers just keep on pounding the shoreline.
Have to go, it's happy hour on the air conditioned trawler. Remember Peter walk slowly, don't look too eager!
