    I had a wild ride here. Sustaining 10 often hitting 13. It was more excitement than I'd prefer for the first sail of the season, but noting broke so I'll take it!

    I'm back! Launched this morning and making a quick trip of the 45nm sail to my summer marina. AIS tells me I'll have a close encounter with a ship before I can even see it on the horizon.

    it's strange to be sleeping in a bed on land. Going through some photos. Here's Meadowhawk photobombing the lake superior yacht yard.

    Ending a trip and coming home is bitter sweet after a great summer, but texting friends who can see us enrote makes me excited to be home.

    Getting on with our last leg before home. It's been a great summer and I'm already hoping for some fun fall sailing.

    started slow and was supposed to take all day and night, but ended as a wicked fast romp we finished by bedtime.

    Houghton, MI library is amazing. Free wifi and a big comfy chair over looking the portage canal. Remote working FTW.

    When I stare into the fog long enough, I start to see ships that aren't there. Cold on watch.
