[Rhodes22-list] Michigan

[Mary Lou Troy]

There is an account of Roger Pihlaja's trip to Garden Island and 
Beaver Island in his Rhodes 22 in the old Rhodes FAQ here:
http://www.geocities.com/blew_skies/gardeni.html

Note that Roger is a fine sailor and outdoorsman. He also used 
regularly post accounts of winter camping trips with his sons.
