Adventures (and Misadventures) of Elliott and Mary

Issue 25 - July through September, 2006: Onto Lake Michigan

After a great 2 day stay in downtown Chicago 's Burnham Harbor, we crossed over the lake to Michigan City, Indiana and the start of our Lake Michigan summer.
 
 
We took many pictures of the various harbors we visited as we traveled along the Michigan coast. I have collected just a few to show.

Click on the Red map tacks on the chartlet to the right for a quick look.
 

We had previously moved our car to Moxie Marina in Whitehall at the end of White Lake and had reserved heated storage for the Winter.

After we got settled in and considered our plans for the rest of the summer we decided to take a slip and use Moxie as 'home base'  for the rest of the summer.

Our slip is the first long one on the pier which follows the line of  the big building's ridge line, right where it  takes a jog to the right in the picture. 


 

The big white building is a 60,000 sq ft space with hot water running through pipes in the floor. Supposed to keep the building at least 55 degrees all the time.
 

We tucked Letitia in about September 15 and we packed up the two cats, their 'stuff, two kayaks with their gear, our 'stuff ' and headed back to Austin, Texas for out Winter storage.

We'll resume our tale when we get back next Spring!!


Till Later!!
