We will be out on the Lake as usual during the summer, most likely
tubing or at our favorite swimming holes.

We have just put a deposit down on a rental house on Put-In-Bay for the
week of July 22-30 (Christmas in July weekend) and will be trailering
the boat up with us. Unless I can find a fixed dock, we will probably
keep it on a buoy on the bay for the week, knowing that Saturday and
most of Sunday will be booked or taken by the time we arrive.


Jim,
I just took a look at Put-In-Bay photos out of curiosity.
What's with the Christmas in July theme?
Bryan


It is just a play on Christmas in the midst of summer that took on a life
of it's own.

This is perhaps the busiest weekend on the island and dedicated to drunks
and more drunks. We have no plans on going into town during the weekend
evenings and I would not planned the vacation during that weekend. But
the son of the other family going with us, a US Marine currently serving
in Iraq, wanted it so he got it.

The island is actually quite fun during the week. ;-)

Thanks for the links. Looks like a celebration! I'm sure it's a great
time for all. Still, you've got to wonder if any boating gets done? Do
they have shore boats for folks staying on the moorings?




Harbor taxi's. The mooring buoys are a great place to get away from the
downtown crowds and rafting at the docks.
