It is! You can't see the bottom! The Coasties were my hero's growing up near Lake Michigan. Still are! Heck, that could be the big lake with a good wind up.

I have been in heavy seas. That right there makes what I experienced look like a lovely ride on a paddle boat.

The ocean is about 3 miles due east of me, and sometimes I can hear it if we have low cloud cover; ...... and it's a bit angry 

 

 ....... but it don't get angry like that very often ......
