Day 174 - ferry's aren't for sissy's

we set off early this morning and drove 50 miles north to ludington to ride the ss.badger across lake michigan to wisconsin.  the morning was beautiful and the water calm.  as soon as we boarded we found a great table next to the large open windows and we set up shop for the next four hours. 
lord knows i had a TON of work to finish up and dave (who is always working on at least 4 books at one time) was ready to start reading.  i don't think we were even 20 minutes in before i started getting sick - YUCK!  i'm not sure why it never dawned on me to prepare for being sea-sick - considering i get motion sickness watching a 3-D movie or even being in a pool for too long!  all that work i had planned on doing took a back seat to a puke bucket and the need to just lay my head down.  **note to self - make sure you have meds for the ride back**
this is the pier as we were pulling out of ludington - beautiful!  once we got to wisconsin and on firm ground i was fine.  we began our next leg on our road trip driving about 3.5 hours north.  we are so looking forward to a fun weekend celebrating with a sweet family as dave officiates a wedding for one of his old youth group kids.  it never ceases to amaze me how fast time goes by.
