Red Flags

Typically, when a person hears the term "red flag" he or she thinks "warning, danger, be alert, stay away." Not in Grand Haven!!! When we hear that the red flag is flying at the beach, we get excited. This is when the fun starts. Enormous waves, strong undertow....You think, "that sounds like danger to me!" Well, I suppose it is dangerous, but for those of us who grew up in Lake Michigan, these are the best of times. Today was a red flag day; a fun day. Karin wasn't so into the waves, but Melissa and I spent a long time being buffeted about by the raging waters. We came out tired, weak, and dizzy....and happy as could be. You should come try it sometime...come to Grand Haven and play in the waves!
