Grafton Harbor, Grafton, IL

Sept. 1, 2012.  We departed Illinois Riverdock after a great breakfast with the frozen, pre-cooked sausage Dave brought, biscuits, and eggs.  We warmed and browned the sausage patties in a pan.  Strangely, no grease appeared--Dave said, no, they are turkey sausage patties.  Quite tasty.

The four other Looper boats were had been traveling with had continued on the 21 miles to Grafton Harbor and were there when we arrived, plus a few additional Loopers who were already there.

Son, John, drover to Grafton after work to join us for a beer and dinner at The Loading Dock.  This was a great chance for him to see the boat and get a free meal.  He also picked up his 6-pack of Spotted Cow beer, a WI favorite!

After riding with Ty and myself from Chicago, Dave left the boat at Grafton to catch a bus from St Louis to Indianapolis, IN, his home.  Thanks Dave for the crewing and your sage boating advice!
