Well I do, and especially when they bring me to my old home state of Michigan. And tug boats, I have such a fondness for them, probably like your love of sailboats! That is such a cutie in your photo too! 21 Witshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00071361755673253230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9454941.post-51540146710656062772016-07-02T20:30:01.419-04:002016-07-02T20:30:01.419-04:00Sounds like your boat will go to a good home.

I always hate not being able to get any money back for something I cherished but knowing that it is going to a good home/cause is reward enough.<br /><br />Although I haven't done any recently, I love meandering drives especially along bodies of water.

That photo of the schooner "Inland Sea" is hauntingly beautiful. I have a special place in my heart for schooners, having grown up Nova Scotian with the Bluenose ever in my heart and mind.

Our younger son's first wedding was in East Lansing, but our whirlwind weekend visit up there didn't give us much of an opportunity to really see and appreciate the state. <br /><br />Aw, you're killing me with the mention of smoked whitefish. We used to buy it frequently when we lived in Baltimore, but the stuff we can get here in the Atlanta area is way too greasy and unappealing. <br /><br />Very cool that you donated your boat.
