Today was a combination of learning and fun. Connie and I separated to cover all of the sessions that we felt necessary for our upcoming segments of our journey. Then this evening we attended a combination dinner/dance held at the site of an old local cotton gin. Great fun, and we danced a bunch.
Yesterday, in addition to attending sessions, one event that we had fun watching was a dingy race which required each couple to compete in their dingy for a prize. The catch was that the guy had to drive blind folded and backward with the partner(usually the wife) sitting in the front barking out directions to her driver guiding him around a buoy and back. Most couples went around in circles before figuring out how to do it. Lots of laughter and fun!

This is Steve and Sheli Sterk before participating in the dingy race. This interesting thing about them is they live in Grandville, Mi, where he runs a business that made all of the cabinet doors for our condo building in Ludington. We discovered after we left on our adventure that they were doing the loop also from their home port of Grand Haven. |

Here are Steve and Sheli during the competition. |

John and Karen Tykol, competed in a row boat. They sold their home and are currently living aboard their boat and will decide later where they will establish a new home in warmer climate. |
