Our first port of call was Saugatuck, Michigan,
a perfect small town to spend Independence Day in.
We kayaked on the Kalamazoo River,
Seeing baby gulls on an old abandoned tugboat.
The tug ran aground several years ago and sits in the river, a haven for gulls.
In addition to shopping, art galleries & checking out the boats,
we watched the Saugatuck Chain Ferry transport people across the river.
One dollar will get you to the other side.
As we departed, we had a patriotic send-off from the townspeople
with music & the waving of a large flag.
Lots of smaller vessels escorted our ship back to the big lake.
Good night & happy birthday America!
