I travel all over the Midwest (and beyond) giving talks about my Great Lakes Adventures.
This spring I was invited to give a talk to the Century Club of Holland.
This social club has been meeting to share the visual, literary, and performing arts for 120 years!
They met at the Macatawa Yacht Club, a gorgeous facility on Lake Macatawa.

In the 1800s, the meetings were hosted in member's homes and the host would stage a play they had written, or share a concert with the club. Today, the club often brings in an author to talk to the group. Since they live so near Lake Michigan, they chose me for their spring meeting.
