Happiness is cruising on a perfectly flat Lake Michigan and arriving in charming little Frankfort less than 5 hours later.
We left Menominee at 5:42 (my early-bird hubby had been up and was ready....), so....we cruised on Green Bay to Sturgeon Bay and went thru the 7:00 AM bridge. Another clear, sunny day. We cruised 80.9 miles
We are at the Frankfort Municipal Marina for 3 nights. This is on Lake Betsie in Benzie County and after doing all our hook-ups and checking into the office, we walked to town - just a short jaunt. Frankfort has a population of 1200 but what a popular summertime place with so many cute shops along Main Street including restaurants, coffee, ice cream, nail/hair salon, etc. There's a bike/walking path just in front of the marina - we'll check that out sometime soon. Several choices for lunch- we chose the Stormcloud Brewing Co and it was a big hit! Mark had the pulled pork and I had the Michigan cherry chicken salad - both delish! They were both served on warm Naan bread. We decided we would be back again to this place.

Mark took our leftovers back to Catrina, I did some browsing and then we both took naps - all that fresh air and yummy lunch made us sleepy. 😀
I got a manicure with Melissa late afternoon. Posh is a busy full-service salon
We went for a walk and decided ice cream from Scoop would be our supper - Mark had Rocky Road and I had Cherries Moo-bilee - excellent!
17 years ago today my Mom passed away - Mark and I were on Daisy in Denali National Park. We remember that day so well and making arrangements to get back to IL. You are so missed and loved, Mom.
Sorry to hear our grand dog, Maverick (Drew and Tessa's Australian Shepherd) has pancreatitis. Wishing him a speedy recovery.
