Northern Road Trip


This year our summer break consisted of a trip back to our roots.  Well my roots to be more specific.  I was from Ohio and Barbara was from Illinois.  This summer I had a Galion High School class reunion, an Ashland College Kappa Sigma Fraternity reunion, a Columbus Public Schools Southeast Career Center reunion and most importantly family to see.   When Barbara and I lived and worked in central Ohio we spent many happy weekends on a boat in the western island area of Lake Erie.  Time would not allow us to do it all so we choose the high school reunion, the relatives, and a trip back to some favorite haunts on Erie.  My parents had a cabin and boats on Erie long before I was in diapers so there were a lot of haunts.  Cedar Point Amusement Park, Put in Bay on South Bass Island, Middle Bass Island,  Catawba Island, Marblehead, Huron, Vermillion, Port Clinton, Sandusky, Peele Island, and Kelley's Island were on the short list.  We made it to seven with our favorite the ferry ride to Kelley's Island and the golf cart ride around it's five mile by five mile scenic shoreline.  Lake perch and walleye fish diners are still quite tasty.  The lake usually freezes in winter so you have to enjoy your short summers. http://www.kelleysislandchamber.com/
