August 1 and 2, 2011; Monday and Tuesday

Monday, Kenosha, WI, Southport Marina:  Everyone left this morning and we are by ourselves again.  We just spent the day cleaning, washing, and resting.  I also worked on the final leg of our journey; Chicago to Grafton, IL where the Illinois River meets the Mississippi River.  It is hard to believe we are almost done with our Loop with only about 450 miles to go.

CO's comments:  I watched another sail boater hit his neighbor 5 times as he was trying to leave his slip.  Makes me nervous to be next to a sail boater except when there is thunder and lightning like last night.  I like their high masts then as they attract the lightning.

Tuesday, Kenosha, WI:  We are still here and the weather does not look good until Thursday so we plan on getting up early and getting to the South Chicago area as soon as the lake allows.
