Day #14 - Traverse City, MI

August 14th, 2008

ANOTHER beautiful day here.  Sunny and 58/78.

For those of you wondering what to do on your next family vacation…we thought we would offer this suggestion.  This boat is currently in Traverse City. It is named CV9 and you can charter it for $85,000-$98,000 per week plus the cost of fuel.  Just a suggestion. You can find out more at http://www.charterworld.com/index.html?sub=yacht-charter&charter=motor-yacht-cv-555

We rented a car for the day and ran errands, etc.  Bill called and he and Pam bought us lunch at a new restaurant in town, The Blue Tractor.  Great food and atmospere located in the old Dill’s Saloon.

Cooked dinner onboard and then got in the car and headed up Old Mission Peninsula.  Stopped at Ben and Ellen’s cottage and walked around. What a lovely place and you can tell Ellen has certainly worked her magic and the place looks great.  Brought back some wonderful memories of all of the time we spent up there. Continued our way up the peninsula and took a picture of The Boathouse (see photo above.)  Looks like they have certainly done some improvements and the place looks great.  Also watched the sun set over Marion Island.   Never tire of the that view.
