It's Official, Tranquilo is For Sale

It is with mixed emotions that we put Tranquilo II up for sale. 


As long as we're here, we might as well enjoy it! It's hot, rainy and humid back in Florida, and 117 in Arizona, so we are glad to be here. The weather is lovely, and you can't beat the scenery.
Another fun Thursday night, this week at the Voyageur in St. Clair.



I spent the weekend in Traverse City with my friend, Kay. She took me up to Charlevoix. What a beautiful town.

Lake Charlevoix


This is the route from Lake Charlevoix to Lake Michigan.
Today Robbie and I did some exploring, driving up the "thumb" of Michigan.
Port Sanilac

Lake Huron


Port Sanilac Marina, we didn't get rained on until we got home!

Stopped to look at the bridge to Canada from Pine Grove Park in Port Huron on the way home. Robbie used to swim here when he was a kid.
Monday night, June 19th, this big storm rolled in. This is not something you like to see when you're on a boat! All it did was rain, thank goodness!






Back on the Boat


On June 3, 2017, we took Tranquilo out of storage, and moved her back to the marina where we had her last summer. We are adjusting to life on the boat, and being back in Michigan.


Moved the boat from River's Bend to St. Clair Boat Harbor down the Pine River.
We have arrived!

We rejoined the weekly meeting of the class of 1964.

We took the boat out for a ride on the St. Clair River.


 St. Clair River.

We often bike to Palmer Park to look at the beautiful river, and use the great bike trails.



Last week we took a ferry over to Harsen's Island and spotted this family of swans.

The ferries run back and forth all day.

On June 5th we had dinner at Rix on the Roof to celebrate Robbie's birthday, then went to the Raven Cafe for coffee.

This day we drove into Ontario, Canada and went to Grand Bend for lunch. Grand Bend is on Lake Huron.


Went to a car show in Marysville. This was my favorite, it's a Wills St Clair, made here Marysville, Michigan in 1926.


On June 8th, our 21st anniversary, we went to the River Crab and had dinner with the Class of 1964.

Not a bad place to wait for the others.


An evening dingy ride on the Pine River.


I love the way the trees reflect in the water in the evening.




Home Sweet Home for now.
