takeit4granted: There were a few,,but a boat ride along the shores of lake michigan with a comfortable date,,mooring up to the lake front museums and visiting,,,following the shores further to the water side restaurants,,and watching my date scale a fence because I moored up to the wrong pier,,,( I did lend a chuckling hand )
My ex-boyfriend had a place on one of the islands at the river near here. We would go there every weekend with his boat. We had friends down there. It would be such a fun time! We'd all get together & have dinner & then sit around a fire & just have a great time! The one guy, "Bim", we always called him, would bring his guitar along. He'd play & I'd sing.
In the morning, I'd get a cup of coffee & walk down to the dock & just look out over the water. It was so calm & peaceful. Then, we'd take a boat ride, just to relax & look around. Later, we'd take rides on the jet skis.
An episode was shot from the island just across from our island for a show on MTV once. I couldn't believe it when I saw it!!
I miss those times! But a lot of those people have sold their places & it's not the same now. Times change... so do people.
