The single most annoying thing about Lake Michigan during the summer is the "personal watercraft." And I don't mind the noise as much as the smell. When I was growing up everyone sailed Hobies. Now I can count them on one hand on a two mile walk along the beach.

I used to live 10 minutes away from a beautiful lake north of Columbus. I would get up early and just take a short drive ... get out and take a walk ... pray ... spend time with mother nature ... enjoy the sunrise. I loved the solitude. But when summer came around ... I resented being part of mankind. The noise started before the sun came up sometimes.

I jet ski on the south shores of lake Michigan. I usually go out to the deeper waters to get away from all the "amateurs" who tend to stay near the shoreline. I used to sail Hobies, they seem to be a dying breed.
