and, I have been heard, on several occasions, stating that I would rather weather an Atlantic Hurricane in a canoe, than a Thunderstorm on Lake Michigan, in any kind of vessel !!!The Great Lakes are a thing of beauty.........but they can become a foul beast when roused by storm.
( A Sumner class Destroyer, in several Atlantic Hurricanes, and a couple of Mediterranean Sea storms...yeah, I have been there

The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
