Ten minutes to write. Less time to read.

This is my home for the next couple days while Earl and I are attending a family reunion on his side. Doesn’t look like a bad place to be, eh?

It’s called Sea Suites, and it’s one of five floating inns in the United States, according to Coastal Living Magazine. It just happens to be anchored in Saugatuck, about 45 minutes up the road from our home, where the reunion takes place.

We have our own cabin, one of four, and complete run of the boat. There’s a sky deck with a bar and a hot tub. And the rate includes a deluxe continental breakfast with wild berry and cream waffles, the boat’s signature dish.

The floating inn never leaves the dock, but I anticipate falling asleep to the gentle rocking of waves and waking up to the smell of great coffee. Being on the water always makes me hungrier.

There is one thing, however. I’ll be bringing my computer, since the boat has WI-FI, so I’ll probably have to work a little. No matter. Life is good.
