SONATA in the George Kemp Marina with GREAT ESCAPE in the berth behind her; Soo locks at the top of the picture.
Departing the George Kemp marina SONATA pulls in behind the Great Laker AMERICAN MARINER . . . travels behind, then beside, then passes.
In the early sunrise as we prepare to depart DeTour, Michigan, a Great Laker passes on its way to Lake Superior.
SONATA leaves DeTour Harbor on the way to Mackinac Island.
Along the way SONATA passes two Great Lakers, both on the way to Lake Superior.
Approaching Mackinac Island
The Mackinac Island Hotel from the sea.
The hotel's gateway . . . a great place for lunch. We arrived by bike.
On the porch again . . . 2011, and . . .
in 2007 when we made the first loop trip.
The front porch, down the drive . . . and back to SONATA. Two days, it is time to move on.
Have talked about the clear water . . . these shots are the clear water behind SONATA in the marina. The sea grass, weeds, are growing well.
On the way to Beaver Island . . . and then the entrance into St. James harbor at Beaver Island where we had a terrific dinner at the local lodge.
Awesome pics.....get some pics of the same exact shot from year to year and see if there are changes....like sitting on the same porch each trip, in the same place.....
