Back in Drummond

Today was an early start having to get Gary to the Chippewa International Aerodrome (see map) so he could begin winging his way back to Seattle where he landed at 10:30AM PST. In order to get to Seattle that early you must leave this area mighty early which is his case was 6:30AM which meant we were on the road at 4:30AM which happens to be the time that most deer/car collisions happen in Northern Michigan. The road to the airport near Sault Ste. Marie is very desolate but fortunately no deer crossed our path although we saw many along the road. One of my tasks after dropping off Gary was to get some cash at an ATM. Much to my surprise I found several 24 hour ATMs along the desolate stretch of road back to De Tour but unfortunately none were functioning (out of service, error code 526, etc.). As it turns out I finally found one that worked right next to the marina in De Tour so my task was accomplished.


Goodbye De Tour Village for 2012



Sheri and I relocated the boat (I drove) and car (she drove) to our home base at Drummond (again, see map) and will leave here on Wednesday for Canada. So far the boat has covered over 600 miles and as accumulated 100 hours on the engine. Nothing else special to report.
