Kelleys Island Visit with MN Gang - Jul 10, 2014
- Took auto ferry from Marblehead, but we did not take a vehicle.
- We arrived at KI at around 1:00 p.m.
- We did not rent from the business at the dock.
- We walked to downtown and rented a golf cart from the Caddy Shack, the same place where we've rented golf carts and bicycles since the late 1990s.
- We rented the cart for an hour. We started west and drove along the edge of the island to the location of the glacial groves and beach and then south and then east around a housing area. Then eventually south to the edge of the island east of the auto ferry dock. Then back to downtown.
- Lunch at the Captain's Corner. I got the Lake Erie yellow perch sandwich as usual. And as usual, it was fantastic. Great sandwich.
- After lunch, we played putt-putt. First time the girls had ever played putt-putt. We did not keep score. It was a wild, hilarious time. Kenzie played a speed round. She finished
