Ultimate Hugh Heward Update #33


Mark Reports 6:16pm


The Hammond Port Authority has welcomed the intrepid ones into Indiana. Voted number one by boaters for friendliness, service and accessibility the Hammond Yacht Club and Horseshoe Casino are rolling out the welcome wagon.

-

Susan greeted them dockside with food and drink, along with the keys to the showers at the yacht club. The credit goes to Mike Smith for arranging the venue.

-

They did a small jump from Michigan City to put them within 15 or so miles from the Chicago River. The "new" plan is to paddle out early and be to Chicago by noon Monday 5-4-09.

-

The Horseshoe casino boast six restaurants and a heap of ways to lose your shirt or sea wind if you don't play your cards right. Lets hope they make it through this next adventure unscathed.

-

Did someone mention using sea wind hull numbers at the roulette table?
