Home again

Had an interesting trip to Pelee Island. First we went across on Thursday which was a windy day .......the day the Tornado(s) hit different parts of Ontario. Our run at 11:30 was an extra put on as the 10:30 run was full and what they did was put us on the old "Pelee Islander" a very small car ferry which made for a wild ride over in the wavy conditions. Being new to this trip I had thought the trip was about 30 minutes long......no way 1 and 1/2 hours. ....... but I didn't get sea sick. the island was interesting we had lunch at a local restaruant then toured around the island stopping at a few spots to hike a bit....we ended off at the Pelee Island winery for a tasting then hurried to the dock for the return trip which was on a much larger ferry .........so a much smoother ride. We will return someday as we didn't have time to explore all the areas we wanted to. Friday we took a circle trip along the shore of Lake Erie had a very nice lunch at a winery situated right on the shore. Then continued on to Windsor and back along the shore of Lake St. Clair to Lighthouse cove then back to the campground where I cooked a nice steak dinner for sue (it was our wedding anniversary) Back home on Saturday and am now extemely busy with the honey do list from Sue.
