After ten days and after a free pump-out, we left Marina Shores. This marina was a real bargain.  Pump-outs= free.
Slips=$20 per night (the last night there was no charge)
Electricity=included in slip fee
Amenities=club house, pool, showers, restaurant.
Access to Chicago=train station right across the street.

The wind/wave predictions for today were good.  Wave heights 2 to 4 subsiding to 1 to 3.  Instead, the wave heights increased leaving us with a bumpy, beamy ride [a bit uncomfortable, but not dangerous].  We arrived at Harbor Shores Marina, in St. Joseph, Michigan at 1400.  This marina was recommended by Ken and Ann Shanley on Charis.  It is a small marina, but has a hotel, pool, hot tub and restaurant.

  The restaurant is a bit pricey, but was very good.  Tomorrow we leave for Saugatuck, one of my favorite ports on the Michigan side of the lake.
