Denise and I rented a house boat this weekend and traveled through the ancient Inland Waterway created when the last great ice sheet retreated from a large lake (Alconquin) 10,000 years ago. We went through a lock and swing bridge on Crooked Lake near Little Traverse Bay on Lake Michigan, then connected through the Crooked River to Burt Lake, then through the Indian River to Mullett Lake, then through the Cheboygan River to the town of Cheboygan on Lake Huron--about 48 miles of woods and marshes across the "Tip of the Mitt" of Northern Michigan. If it were not for Denise's great navigational skills and our hand held GPS, we would still be out there somewhere.
