STL DPB ON THE ROAD - MUSKEGON LAKE

Muskegon Lake is about 40 minutes northwest of Grand Rapids, just in from Lake Michigan and connected by a channel. It's pretty good size, about 2.5 miles / 4 km wide and 5.5 miles / 8.9 km long. My son, um, suggested that I rent a pontoon boat for the day big enough for the five adults and three grandchildren. My son knows how to run a boat; I do not. We could go no farther than the second red tower, the end of the jetty into Lake Michigan proper. Then we went to a beach with shallow water and the kids had a very good time.
