5. Lake Michigan's water surface is allegedly 22,300 square miles. It's a picture perfect day weather wise. Mostly sunny, Mid to upper 70s, and about a 10-15 mph wind.
If you had to guess, how many boats do you think will be OUT (meaning NOT "docked") on the lake today at 2:30pm?
Bonus Thought -
I have changed my bonus thought twice already so I am just going to write one before I change my mind again.
Sometimes if I look out my window/s at the right moment/s- within 10 seconds I can see planes, trains, automobiles, vans, SUVs, trucks, buses, boats, bicycles, scooters, helicopters, segways, roller Skates/blades, wheelchairs, and motorcycles.
I could be wrong but I believe if there is a God, he/she/it never intended for man/woman to have any of the things I mentioned.
Except maybe boats.
I can't decide which I feel was the best invention of all the things I mentioned.
Now for a 180 degree turn on my thought - I feel the gift of sight is taken for granted by most.
