Wow! That looks rough. I can't imagine trying to surf on that. Wait a minute, I can't imagine tying to surf at all. LOL

Last night on the news was a film clip of 2 guys on jet skis. They are nuts & if they got in trouble, other lives would be in danger trying to rescue them.

I'm a West-Coaster and I am having trouble wrapping my head around 18 foot waves on a LAKE. :D I have seen programs about Lake Michigan so I am not totally ignorant, but still!
