We took a short cut to Wisconsin by taking a four hour ferry ride across Lake Michigan. The accommodations were much like the slow ferry of Cordova – lawn chairs on the bow of the boat. The only difference was the air temperature was about 20 degrees warmer and the skies were clear. We were able to soak up the sunset and then gaze at the constellations during the night. The ferry arrived at midnight in Wisconsin and then we drove through the night. I much preferred the lawn chairs to the chair in our van.
