Mackinac Island Sailing School Part Two!

Well, I lived aboard a 52 foot Ketch for a few days again. And it was amazing!  She certainly was yar. ;) It was a bit chilly, but awesome. We even tilted about 35 degrees. A little scary, a lot of fun. Since a picture is worth a thousand words, and I don't want to write thousands of words, enjoy some of my favorites from the trip. :)

What tilt! Love the facial expressions. :)

I love lighthouses.. I'm pretty sure I'm in the right state. 

Cool reflections with the compass cover.  

The one I got to go in a few months ago!  

It's all about dat geometry. 

Driving under the bridge! Again.  

Being artsy. (One line that controls the jib) 

I just couldn't stop taking pictures of this boat. So pretty.

Love this one! 

I just love reflections of any kind! 

SO MUCH TILT. 

Underwater creepiness. 

Driving. So amazing! 

Tilting at 35 degrees. 

Mackinac Winter Dreaming

Recently, I decided to stay another winter on Mackinac. Making this decision was extremely hard. I'm terrible at making decisions, especially semi-big life decisions. ;) But how could I ever leave the island? I'm looking forward to spending another winter here, and it has me dreaming of bonfires, skiing, baking, being very creative, and mainly getting my little kitten back! He turns one tomorrow and I miss him so much!

Back when he was just a lil teeny nugget. :) Also, that backdrop? Yum. 

Foggy fort day. 

View from Arch Rock! Pretty different view in the winter. 

Lovin the East Bluff! 

Just out for a beautiful stroll. 

I don't know which season I like the Arch in more! 

Sunsets are my favorite.

My little monster loves to go on walks. 

One of the watercolor paintings I did in my class this winter! Absolutely love it.
