Monday - June 5

 The boys slept in and at 10, we were off to a la carte for a good hearty breakfast.   Then to Sassy Sal's to get their fishing licenses ($14 each) and some fishing info - because of the strong winds we've had the past 2 days, the water is kinda murky and churned up, so the guy suggested we head up to North Bass Island.    We made the 11:30 bridge and just a short jaunt from entering the lake channel, a lady yelled at us that her fishing pole had fallen in the water and could we please get it.    It was a good 100' from where she and a young boy (8-10ish) had been fishing.    So, boys to the rescue to retrieve and return to her - she was very grateful!!!

Great breakfast to start the day
Men to the rescue bringing up fishing pole that got away AND had a fish on the end!!!

The water was calm, but cool and hazy.    We headed toward Put-In-Bay and let the boys fish for awhile but no luck.    Moved to another location, but no catch today.    They still had fun.    Onto Put-In-Bay and docked the boat at "Dock 'n Dine" for 4 hours.    We rented a golf cart for 2 hours and the 3 guys took us around the island stopping at the Chocolate Cafe for ice cream for the 3 of them and latte for me.

Ice cream time
Pretty flowers all over the island
The guys watching the car ferry come in - they were amazed at how many trucks, cars and people fit + room for more

Finished our ride and Mark returned the golf cart while the boys and I walked around the Perry Memorial.   Then we walked around town with the boys getting some souvenirs (shirt for Connor and cap for Liam).    Dinner at The Boardwalk (1st time for the guys to have perch and walleye)👍👍 good eating!


Can't beat Lake Erie walleye and perch!
And on the way back to our marina, Connor wrapped up like a mummy and had a good snooze

What a big day - we packed in so much but still things we wanted to do....however, tomorrow, the boys are heading out early for home sweet home and jobs, lawn mowing, online classes, etc.
