Friday - May 24

 Woke up by the water with clear blue skies and warming up to 80.    Mark is ready to switch from happy camper to happy boater!    He did some little odd jobs while Catrina was still in the building before she was launched this afternoon.    Visited Dave, the marina manager - such a nice guy.   Checked out the new bathrooms and showers - very nice!!!

I was looking forward to Coffee Express and a yummy treat .....of course, big crowd, great latte and muffins (tomorrow's breakfast as we'll be in the thick of transferring our stuff).    

Donna reminded us that this is the big Walleye Festival (always Memorial Day weekend), so that's definitely on the agenda for sometime over the next few days.   Bob (Donna's husband is very handy and likes to keep busy over the winter months).....so he built 12 of these very nice planters to place around the marina!    Way to go, Bob!!!

And these pretty daisies just outside Superior Marine's gate!

Mark and I went to Dock's Beach Bar for lunch - very busy but good as ever (he had the crab cake sandwich and I had a pulled pork).    I got my hair cut by Wendy at Salon 53, got the car washed and finally stopped at Bassett's for a few groceries (that place was a zoo).

When I returned Catrina was in the water and at 4, she was in her slip beside Flo.....tomorrow we'll start moving our stuff.

Soo good to be back in Port Clinton - new businesses and buildings going up, but also a favorite ice cream shop is closing.  😔

Catrina and Flo reunited again...

Mark was in need of an ice cream fix, so.....we went to Scooter's (he got a turtle sundae and I got a snickers flurry.)   Yum!    Very busy place with several teens and then a ball team arriving just after we ordered.

Enjoy your holiday weekend!
