As I was washing dishes this morning, I saw a rainbow!
We had a great night of sleep on Monday night. The wind was still high, about the same mph. However, the wind direction was west, so the breakwater stopped the waves from coming in. On Sunday night when it was so terrible here, the wind was from the south, and water came piling into the harbor. We had dramatic rocking on Sunday, but it was quiet yesterday. We were grateful and slept nine hours.
I was washing dishes and saw the rainbow above. We had a few minutes of sunshine. Then we settled in for a cold and rainy day with a high of just 62 degrees. It feels like winter, which is scary.
However, the forecast is for warming and sunshine starting on Thursday. All the loopers are planning to move on Thursday. Some folks south of us can move tomorrow. We are eager to get south on this lake as the wind seems milder there.
It's been a quiet day in Lake Michigan. I shopped a bit and ran into loopers here, visiting from Charlevoix by car. Everyone is just as antsy as we are. This afternoon George and I spent time planning our visit to Chicago. It has seemed so far away and unattainable, but now we can see that we might arrive there next week. Woohoo!
As soon as we get a break in the rain, we are headed out to find supper. I never got to the fish store today, so we will try to catch a burger instead.
This photo shows the crazy wad of lines and fender tied to our center cleat,
trying to keep Aunt Aggie safe and off the docks.
