Dave and Jim gave the teak two coats of fresh varnish and it looks beautiful. Lin did all the towels and bedding laundry so when we get back the boat will be all fresh.
I can't say enough about Jim and Lin. Besides being our forever dear friends, they were awesome to travel with. Helping get that boat through all those 45 locks, cooking and cleaning, reading charts and keeping us on course and varnishing and fixing something all the time. Putting up with Dave and I! Jim spent quite a bit of time in the engine room trying to get the auto helm working properly and darn if he didn't do it!! They live in Florida 9 months of the year but live on their gorgeous Chris Craft in Sodus in the summers. Lin is a very experienced travel agent.

Thanks again you two!!!
Today is our 16th wedding anniversary and what a fun, crazy trip it has been! We have three adorable grandchildren; we still have crazy dreams and make each other laugh. What more could you ask? Love you honey!
So we left Blue Moon in Midland and rented a car and drove the 3 1/2 hours home to Pt. Breeze.
Carmen is spending Friday night with us so we are a happy Ganny and Grandpa! I'm picking up Aja tomorrow from Steve because for some reason I miss that grouchy old cat.
Plan on returning to the boat next Tuesday and John, Karen and Brandon will be joining us a few days later for our Georgian Bay North Channel, Mackinack Island and trip down Lake Michigan to Chicago by Labor Day portion of the Great Loop.
