Wow, the wishometer is way off. GPS looks like 53.7 MPH. Still a fast run on a 260.

Here is my "let's burn some gas" picture. I had a full 52 MPH on the GPS later in the day.

Here are some pix from our vacation in Northern Michigan on the Inland Waterway and Mackinac Island.

Our parking space for the week from our balcony.

She drove more than I did all week

Can't beat these conditions.

Nice shots Dave! I was wondering where the photos were from your vacation.
The inland waterway reminds me of the Rideau Canal System here in Ontario. I'm glad you had such good weather. How many hours did you rack up?

New to the site but love what I see so far. Just got my "new to me" 1995 220 Horizon. This was taken about 30 minutes into our first day on the lake. Great day.

That is Coralville Lake Reservoir. It is about 35 miles north of Washington. Right by Iowa City and Coralville. We typically Boat at Lake Red Rock by Pella but I was picking the boat up that day from Coralville Lake Marina. What brought to Washington?
