Waiting since last Wednesday. At one point, the open waters forecast (beyond five nautical miles for shore) for the part of northern Lake Michigan that we would travel had waves to 13 feet. We don\u2019t mind being offshore a ways &#8211; there\u2019s much less traffic. We\u2019ve been watching the reports from the buoys and they have been reporting over six foot waves. That\u2019s a hard no from this crew.We have enjoyed our walks in Northport, and the good wifi in the marina, and an easy walk to the grocery. But I\u2019m looking at my meds, and the extras that I brought along just in case, and we\u2019re cutting it tight. Tomorrow, Monday September 9 we go &#8211; in the predawn gloaming, we set out on a long passage to Frankfort. It\u2019ll be a push, but we have plans manage our watches so that we get some rest along the way.The forecast weather for the rest of the week looks pretty good, but honestly, the forecasts have changing by the day. We will go tomorrow, and re-evaluate after anchor down and dinner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/upon-reflection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/IMG_4789-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-179\" srcset=\"https:\/\/upon-reflection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/IMG_4789-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/upon-reflection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/IMG_4789-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/upon-reflection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/IMG_4789-rotated.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We\u2019ve been patiently waiting for the weather to change.
