It’s windy and warm here today, fitting weather as we get close to Labor Day.
We had lunch with friends Lynne and Mark. They also live in Governor’s Land and we were introduced by mutual friends this spring. L and M have a beautiful home on the Leelanau Peninsula overlooking Lake Michigan. The Peninsula separates Lake Michigan from Grand Traverse Bay, and is home to Sleeping Bear Dune (the awesome sand dune national park) and Leland, one of our favorite cruising ports. We went to lunch in Sutton’s Bay and had a great visit as you can see from the attached pictures. They will come back to Williamsburg at the end of October, so really will miss all the hot weather there.
So now on to “surf’s up!”. We have a 25-30 mph wind from the south, and it is creating great waves and wind updrafts. So surfers, wind surfers and kite surfers are out in droves. What a show! We can’t really capture it with the camera, but attached are some shots that try. We sat at the beach for an hour watching all the fun, as did a lot of other people. Supposed to rain tonight so we expect tomorrow to be all calm again and maybe we can get the jet skis out for another run.
