Harbor Centre Marina, Sheboygan, WI

Day #39: Happy 70th Birthday Mom! We were up at 6:30 A.M. for coffee, peach and banana bread. Thanks to my sister Krista for connecting with Mike and I through FaceTime as they were at breakfast for my Mom's birthday at Levi's (our favorite restaurant for birthdays and anniversaries). It was great to see my family. Mike and I took at walk out onto the break wall out to the harbor light. After we headed to the farmer's market were we bought corn on the cob and peaches. Last year the lady that did my hair here and the lady that did my hair yesterday both mentioned the lemonade stand at the farmer's market. So today I bought a raspberry lemonade made with fresh lemons (they add the lemons to the lemonade once it has been mixed). It was the best lemonade that I have ever had. They had about 20 different types to choose from such as coconut lemonade, blueberry lemonade, cherry lemonade etc.  At 12:15 P.M. we headed to the pool that was full of screaming kids. At 2:15 P.M. we headed back to the boat for happy hour on the flying bridge. Mike and I talked to my Mom and Dad via FaceTime to wish my Mom happy birthday. Russ and Kerry from "Long Story" stopped by so that we could give them a tour of our boat. We started dinner about 5:10 P.M. corn on the cob and fresh whitefish on the grill. Time for guitar playing and blogging. Mike and I are planning on getting up at 2:00 A.M. to watch the meteor showers.
Happy 70th Birthday Mom! (this is from Dad's 70th Birthday).

On the grounds of the marina are the remains of the "Lottie Cooper" a schooner.

This is what the "Lottie Cooper" looked like in its day.

Fresh whitefish and corn on the cob-YUM!
