Horseshoe to Sturgeon Bay 

This morning we left Horseshoe Island about 11:00, Matt and Kim helped us get underway. This couple made our stay very pleasant, I hope we meet more people like them on the trip. We decided to get fuel and some groceries at Egg Harbor and stopped for 135 gallons of diesel and 4 sacks of food. The diesel at Egg Harbor is the least expensive we have seen in all of Wisconsin at $3.689 per gallon. Egg Harbor updated their marina from 16 slips to 60 slips on floating docks, we would have stayed but they were full every time we were available, maybe next year.

We arrived in Sturgeon Bay just before the tall ships, we heard the Coast Guard roll call of ships on Channel 81A on our VHF radio. We walked to the Michigan Street bridge just in time to see the arrival of the first ship. The Denis Sullivan from Milwaukee is here along with Niagara and 4 others, we hope to tour some of the ships tomorrow.
