Waves hitting the pier today
Shoreline @ Port Austin
Today we stayed in Port Austin because of high winds and waves. Tomorrow does not look all that promising yet either. The oil on our trusty little diesel engine was changed, and we biked around the area. It doesn't take long to check out the nice little town of 700 people and with almost that many restaurants. (they do take longer to check out)
The town is busy redoing the waterfront and the marina is in the middle of a 5 1/2 million dollar make-over. All of Michigan's more than 75 municipal and state owned marinas along the lakeshores are mostly funded with the taxes raised on fuel sold at marinas and boat registration fees. All are well kept and are upgraded periodically. We prefer to stop at those when we have a choice. Port Austin is no exception.
