Travel with Albion - Friday

Friday  September 21th

 

The beach towns along the Canadian Shore of Lake Huron are beautiful.  There are large sandy beaches for miles, the water is clear blue reminding you of the Caribbean with a quaintness similar to Vermont.  They call everything up here Bluewater such and such. 

 

We are back on shore today.  Three things going on.  First yesterdays winds caused the sands to shift and there are warnings of harbor entrance closings in the direction we are heading.  Second there is another small craft warning issued and things are really to pick up, they are  talking 30 knot winds and 3 meter waves.  So not a good day to alter course if we cannot enter a harbor.  Third, Bill needs to get back to work on Monday.  So we rented a car and I am driving Bill tomorrow (Saturday) down to the Niagara area to meet up with Becky (his wife) who is driving up to get him.  So the earliest I will be back on the lake is Sunday.  However, at this point the long range weather report doesn't look favorable.  We are two days out of Port Huron.  So close, yet so far away…
