Cheybogan Day 5 to Mackinaw City

The next few marinas will be in small towns without supermarkets, so we hiked five miles to WalMart and back with five big bags since the Uber driver doesn’t wake up until 10 AM and we have to leave the marina before 11 AM. It was weight training without the gym. We enjoyed a short and pleasant cruise along the northern shore of the Straits with beautiful weather, low humidity and a nice breeze with a few bumps whitecaps. The water is amazingly clear (and cold at 63 degrees). We walked to the Bridge Museum, which is in a pizza parlor, and the tourist district, with fudge shops and ice cream and T-shirt shops galore. We always select a slip with a view of the boat ramps when available. That’s how we learned the 1,027 Things You Should Never Do When Launching A Boat. Also, we just broke over 6,000 miles on the Loop!
