Peter completed his loop. About 6000 miles clockwise around eastern U.S., in a canoe.
Not his first adventure. Won't be his last.
@sundogplanets @LibraryFinch I discovered libraries as a great refuge while boating around the #GreatLoop. If I docked at a town with a library within walking distance, it was a great place to go to escape the heat or rain or cold and get some work done on my laptop. This was especially true when I was crew on an overcrowded boat for five weeks back in 2022, but I recently enjoyed one in Florida to escape the heat in August. (What was I thinking?)
MittenGirlPeach 🧡 🎾 ⚾️This is a really nice piece. It will make you smile. Be well, Peter! #GreatLoop #GreatLakes #PureMichigan #canoeing https://www.mlive.com/news/2025/06/michigan-adventurer-canoes-from-upper-peninsula-to-florida-and-thats-only-halfway.html
Kevin GuthrieA cabin cruiser anchored in a bay east of Oberlin Bay in Lake Huron's #GeorgianBay flies a #GreatLoop burgee on the bow. Looper boats have decorated the view from several of my campsites. May loopers say that Georgian Bay is their favorite part of the trip. I enjoyed dinner with Ted and Sarah Pongracz a few years back on their 30th loop in the Manatee https://www.greatloop.org/

Who says you can't get a good parking space in a big city?
I am officially done with my #GreatLoop adventure. I'll probably blog a little bit about it this evening. I've also got a ton of video footage to process, but don't expect to see any videos for at least a couple of weeks.
Right now, I'm off to get an eye exam and some #Chicago deep dish #pizza, which this Jersey Girl likes a heck of a lot better than NY thin crust.
Good morning, Mastodon! Today should be the last day of my #GreatLoop adventure! If all goes well, I'll be pulling into my slip at Chicago's DuSable Harbor Marina at about 1 PM, thus "crossing my wake." #LakeMichigan has decided to be very kind to me this morning with just the tiniest of ripples (so far), ensuring me of a smooth journey. I'm sitting on the command bridge, enjoying the fresh air. #boating #BoatLife
Good morning, Mastodon!
The wind has finally died down here in Milwaukee. Good weather forecasted for the next few days. Later this morning I'll continue on to Waukegan, where I'll likely have my boat pulled out of the water later in the week. I officially finish my #GreatLoop trip tomorrow when I cruise into #Chicago.
Tomorrow! What a long, strange trip it's been. 😊 #boating #BoatLife
