Marquette, MI - What a Place to Wait

We slid into Marquette, MI in the evening of Apr 11th after 30 hours since our departure from Grand Marais. The city lights were nice! Little did we know that we'd be spending a week here - hahaha.
The ice at the exit of Lake Superior was still showing 9/10th coverage, a no-go for us. This forced wait turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Our days in Marquette were hectic.
We found an issue with our VHF radio, and thanks to a local telecommunication and radio expert, Don Salo, our range is much improved now. It did take 3 trips up the mast by Mark, Lonnie and Pascale - hahaha. Don also stocked our electrical spare parts from his incredible warehouse, forever grateful.

Our AIS failed and works again with new dedicated VHF and GPS antennas. An alternator glitch was repaired, and the outboard motor mount was retrofitted and tested. The new autopilot recalibrated after doing the first leg by steering manually. Our geneker halyard installation improved, preventer and whisker pole lines fine-tuned, complete with a custom sewn stuff bag by non other than Don. The boat has been greatly improved.
The folks of Marquette have been incredibly generous and interested in the journey. We had warm showers, fresh bread and treats. We had a nice pizza lunch with Don's homemade crust. We also shared a presentation at a local pub, a fun group of peeps!
We had some cold snowy days and warm sunny days. A beautiful town!
Thank you Marquette!

I’ve been using this game for about a week now, and it’s been a decent experience overall. The design is simple and easy to navigate, which I appreciate because I don’t like complicated apps. It works fine on my device without any lag issues. Sometimes the outcomes feel random, but that’s expected in games like this. I usually play it in short sessions, and it keeps me entertained for that time. Not the best game ever, but definitely not bad either.

J’ai longtemps cru que les problèmes venaient uniquement de la connexion internet, alors que même avec une bonne vitesse, le flux ne passait pas correctement sur Chromecast. En explorant plusieurs pistes, je suis tombé sur https://www.enparlons.com/blogs/iptv/iptv-chromecast et ça m’a aidé à comprendre que le souci venait souvent du format du flux ou du manque de compatibilité de certaines apps. Ça m’a évité de continuer à chercher du mauvais côté.
