Another warm sunny day although lots of fog earlier this morning. We walked to McDonalds (short jaunt and opposite direction from the Catch 22 Bistro yesterday) for some exercise, coffee and cinnamon rolls.
Back to Catrina and got ready for departure leaving at 10 and arriving at noon at St. Clair Shores. Pretty ride (love these clean, clear blue waters and we'll miss that when we are back on Lake Erie tomorrow)! What wonderful boating country up here!!!
Charlotte and her buddies really did a number last night with their intricate web spinning - this was by far the worst (or prettiest) designs we've seen yet, Hard to get pics (they were everywhere) with the bright sun but here's a few...
The owners of this sweet little cottage at the Algonac marina love their lavender flowers
2 ferries passing from Algonac to Harsens Island
LOVE this water
We settled back in our spot here at Jefferson Marina, had lunch and I walked a bit to see a wedding/reception happening here at the marina.
One wedding over and getting ready for the next
Reception site - The Ovation docked here at Jefferson Marina
At 3, we left for church knowing it was hot, humid and 1.7 miles away. It takes forever just to get out of the marina and then onto Jefferson (Nautical Mile). We were surprised to see 2 very long stretch limos come into the marina - another wedding party??? So, trying to break our trip up a bit, we stopped at Mastro's for ice cream - they make their own dipped waffle cones and bowls. Mark had a chocolate with M & M's dipped bowl with butter pecan (they were out of rocky road). I had a chocolate dipped nutty bowl with sea salt caramel pretzel ice cream - all delicious. Mastro's does not have inside dining (plenty of room but apparently did away with tables and chairs cause of Covid)? So, we sat in the window seat and enjoyed our treats - too hot to go back outside especially when we were only 1/2 way to church. So, after a nice rest, we were on our way to St. Lucy's and so nice to be there plenty early, cool down and of course, pray for soooo many on our prayer lists.
Father James Commyn is the priest and has a litle tidbit section in the bulletin "Commyn Cents" - neat!
Mass was at 4:30 and then time to start back but another break at Waves for dinner. We had to wait just a bit for a table. Mark had the pork chops and I had a Caribbean-style chicken breast sandwich. Both were really good. And then the last leg on back to Catrina by 7:15. Been a big day and tomorrow we are headed to Port Clinton and our last trip of the season. Where oh where has this summer gone?
Looking back on the blog from 2008, we were at Waves for dinner on August 9, St. Lucy's for Mass on the 10th and then onto Algonac on the 11th. Thirteen years and 10 days later.
