Leland, MI – Frankfort, MI – August 4, 2008


We departed Leland at 8:45 after Bob and Margaret took on fuel. The day started out nice, but the wind started to increase and soon we were pretty uncomfortable. We were in choppy water, going into the wind. There were whitecaps and 3-6’ waves. We were glad this weather hadn’t been yesterday.

We cruised along the eastern side of Lake Michigan. Most of the shoreline looked like this. It is pretty and rugged looking.
We arrived in Frankfort at 2:15. There is a long breakwater with a lighthouse just before the entrance to Frankfort. The entrance is very narrow and opens into a large lake with 6 marinas. This is a nice, small town.

We are hoping the weather is good tomorrow. If so, we will cross Lake Michigan to Sturgeon Bay.
