Hunker Down in Roger's City

After another late morning awakening, we untie the boat and head out onto the calm seas.  We continue to have great conditions for boating, so we do not even get the bikes off the boat and continue heading North. Presque Isle bike paths and lighthouses will have to wait for our return trip. I cannot take advantage of the smell of pine trees that are abundant on shore. Ron reminds me of what I am missing and I hope to get my nose back to normal very soon. Napa auto parts has the fuel filters we are looking for and this gives us a destination for a much needed bike ride when we land.
Roger's City has a great park next to the marina with a swimming beach and I'm hoping the ice cream/fried food shop is open! Wild Goose gets assigned to dock 89 and after tying the lines we find out we are next to an old NCYC boat. The 1972 C & C 39 that Leslie Hill and family sailed. It is now serving as Mackinaw race boat and cruiser on Lake St Clair.
 The local gallery provided some great ideas for the empty house we'll be making into a home when we head south in a month or so. Leftovers and early to bed still hoping to wake up and smell "the north".
