July 19 CPR Slip

Published by Kip at 9:09 pm under Uncategorized

We had another wonderful, warm sunny day here. Several boats left late last night and early this morning but they were replaced by two power boats and another sailboat from Thunder Bay.  We had a lazy day enjoying not having to move the boat.  After another sauna, we grilled hamburgers and sat back to listen to the loons calling around us.  Those of us who stayed up late spotted three more satellites and realized the satellite we spotted last night must have been the Space Station because of its size and brightness.  Most of us do not have the chance to enjoy the night skies and spot  these  interesting things because of the light pollution we all live with.  Tomorrow we are off to Nipigon which is 30 miles further north and we will cross the 49th parallel getting there. It is the northern most part of the Great Lakes.

    ISS (International Space Station) is great to see going across the sky. The star gazing sounds fantastic!

    Glad you had warm weather!

    Sail Safe!
