the fourth.kelley's island

Hello! Sticky and I hope that everyone had a safe and happy 4th of July! We spent the 4th strolling around Kelley's Island on our cruisers (well, Sticky's was a rental but it looked like he was born on the thing). My parents have enjoyed camping on Kelley's Island since last summer and kept telling us that we had to come up. It was everything they said and more. It has this great story book small town feel to it - like something you would see on tv and think "no one lives in a town like that". Another great thing about Kelley's is all the fun things there are to do. You can go camping, swimming, hiking, cycling, fishing, wine tasting, and lots lots more. I guess it is infamous for being a bird watchers paradise as well. The nature is great on the island - you will be riding around on your bike and all of the sudden see a deer about 3 feet from you. And while you are enjoying a game of horseshoe at the winery you may have a herd of cows as spectators. All in all it is a wonderful place. We are going back at the end of July to do some camping with my niece and nephew - CAN'T WAIT!
