After breakfast on Monday we lifted the anchor and moved over to Snug Harbor Marina in Pentwater. We were assigned a great location on their north sea wall where we were parked under a large shade tree with a picnic table and grill right next to the boat. Awesome! It was a hot sunny day so we spent time at the beach and also took a dinghy ride across Pentwater Lake and up the Pentwater River.
On Tuesday we had special visitors! Sister Sue brought our moms up to visit! It was so great to see them as we have not seen them since we were home in March. Big hugs all around! It was beautiful day for picnic lunch under our big shade tree. It was a perfect summer picnic including brats on the grill. We enjoyed chatting, spending time together and even a little shopping! What a fun day!
Wednesday morning we left Pentwater and traveled 48 miles to Muskegon. There were small swells on Lake Michigan but it wasn't too uncomfortable for our 6 hour ride. We pulled into Lakeshore Yacht Harbour where our friend Henk Witte was waiting to catch our lines. Henk and Thressa are platinum Loopers which means they have completed the Loop twice! Henk invited us aboard their boat the Marco Polo II to share Loop tales. Henk was a big influence in our decision to do the Loop and seemed very happy and proud of our accomplishment. Thanks Henk! Later we jumped in Henk's car and went to Dockers, a local restaurant for dinner. After returning to the marina we were treated to a beautiful sunset before retiring for the evening.
