During the summer when I am not working as a prison librarian (currently the oldest librarian working for the Michigan Department of Corrections) I can usually be found sailing on Lake Superior on one of our sailboats: Penryn a classic Robert Tucker designed sloop built in Cornwall, England ; Windsong II a C&C 27 a true Canadian classic; or in The Tuffy Bean a 9 foot tender and sailing dinghy.
