In 1955 my parents took us to Canada for a two week vacation.  We all looked forward to the trip as this would be our first trip outside of the United States.   What we did not expect was a Hurricane Advisory on the Great Lakes.   About the same time that we started driving north in the mid west,  a hurricane started moving up the Atlantic seaboard.  It came inland and began to slow down but there were still strong winds that swept across the lakes and got to Detroit about the same time we did.  My brother and I loved seeing the large waves come crashing ashore.
