Les Cheneaux Islands

Wednesday -- today we made our way from Harbor Island to the Les Cheneaux Islands "The Snows". The Snows are located in the UP of Michigan and our a number of channels that create many bays to anchor. We ended up anchoring in Government Bay which is probably the most protected of the anchorages. The cruise over was about 4 hours on completely calm waters. Once we set anchor, we drove the dinghy into Cedarville (about 45 minute dinghy ride) for some lunch. Cedarville is nothing to write about, but it is always nice to get off the boat and enjoy some "greasy spoon" cooking.

The night was completely calm with a sky full of stars and completely quiet.

Internet Update -- We had both Internet via the AirCard and cell phone service -- without the need of the booster antenna.

"The Snows" (Les Cheneaux), "Skillagelee" (Iles aux Galets), "Bob-Lo" (Bois Blanc).

The locals here have an aversion to the French language. I always thought "Bob-Lo" was an amusement park island near Amherstburg.

Then there's "Schmalzreid Road" here in Bliss. The locals call it "Small Road".... It's a small world!!
