点评:We were looking to spend some time in Michigan after our granddaughter’s graduation from the U of Michigan. We found this on the Pure Michigan website. It is 2 hours from Ann Arbor and we did other things in the area. This is well worth a 2 hour drive and overnight stay!! Will (Lenny to his friends) is a true River Rat. He has spent his life on the river and knows it well. He knows where it is shallow and where it is deep, and he can tell these areas by the direction the wind is coming from. He knows where the eagles’ nest are and we saw lots and lots of eagles and nest. We booked over the phone with him and sent him a deposit. He was waiting in the parking lot for us when we arrived. We booked for a 3 hours tour. Because Wil did not have an afternoon group, we stayed out for 5 hours (with one pull-in the pee). Wil’s childhood stories on the river are right out of Tom Sawyer. They were so much fun to hear and allowed us to experience his love of the river. We have good binoculars which are great for getting a peak at the fledglings in the nest. Wil saw everything without binoculars, but I highly recommend taking a pair per person. Our day was cool and overcast which worked out just fine.
翻译:我们的孙女从密歇根大学毕业后,我们想在密歇根呆一段时间。我们在 Pure Michigan 网站上找到了这个地方。这里距离安娜堡有 2 小时车程,我们在该地区做了其他事情。这里非常值得我们开车 2 小时并过夜!!威尔(朋友们都叫他 Lenny)是真正的河鼠。他一生都在河边度过,对这条河非常了解。他知道哪里是浅水,哪里是深水,他可以通过风向来判断这些区域。他知道鹰巢在哪里,我们看到了很多很多鹰和巢。我们通过电话与他预订了行程,并给他寄了定金。我们到达时,他正在停车场等我们。我们预订了 3 小时的游览。因为威尔没有下午的团,所以我们在外面呆了 5 个小时(其中有一次在小便时停下来)。威尔在河上的童年故事就像汤姆索亚的故事一样。听起来很有趣,让我们感受到他对河流的热爱。我们有很好的双筒望远镜,可以很好地观察鸟巢中的雏鸟。威尔不用双筒望远镜就能看到一切,但我强烈建议每人带一副。我们那天天气凉爽,阴天,这很好。
