[Rhodes22-list] Michigan City Boat Show

[Ronald Lipton]

I will also be at the Michigan City boat show.  We have a house
about a block from the beach in Long Beach Indiana if folks
want to get together there during or after the show they
are welcome.

I have a couple of other suggestions for hotels.  There are a couple of
nice B&Bs in the area.  The Duneland Beach Inn is a few blocks from
my house and a two block walk from the lake.  The Creekwood Inn
is closer to the highway but is also nice. The area around New Buffalo
is more touristy (and pricey) but has a number of good restaurants
(Red Arrow Roadhouse, Miller's ) and probably a number of nice
B&Bs as well.  The Harbor Grand in New Buffalo has a nice view
of the harbor but is probably also expensive.

(I hope this mail gets through... this is my third try to get the return
address right so the mailing list doesn't think I am spam).
