The mention of the Lake Michigan ferry reminds me the purchase of my '66 BJ8.
My son and I went out to finalize the sale in Green Bay, Wisconsin 
and planned to
cross Lake Michigan on the Ferry and continue home across Canada to
upstate NY.  We got to the ferry parking lot in time to see it 
leaving the dock and headed
out to sea (or rather "lake".)

I spent the next hour teaching my son to drive a stick shift (in our 
new-to-us Healey) in
the ferry parking lot!

The rest of the trip is another story.
