Island 2014 - Watch For Animals
This season I saw deer (not uncommon), fox (a bit less common), loon (have maybe seen them once or twice up here), and a blue jay (don't recall having seen one on the Island before).
Island 2014 - Smokey the Bear
I've still never seen a bear on the Island although Dale says he has on more than one occasion. Maybe Smokey the Bear is as close as I'll get. This image is from a sign close to the ferry landing.

Island 2014: Second Trip - Greunke's Inn, Bayfield
Monday, July 7, 2014
Greunke's had at least as much kitschy charm as Maggie's. I ordered the chef salad which was great. My server, Bobbie Rose, recommended the strawberry shortcake for dessert. She told me that the strawberries were from Bayfield and the current batch had just come in that morning. She said their strawberry shortcake was the best and after eating it I can't say I'd disagree with her. That was some pretty riotous old school stuff. They don't mess around. The first time I ever drove through Bayfield back in 2002, I noticed Greunke's because of the red exterior but also the big sign out front advertising a Friday night fish boil. I'd never heard of a fish boil before. In Minnesota we have fish fries. Anyway it stuck in my head. I can't believe it's taken me this long to try the place. Better late than never, huh?

Island 2014: Second Trip - Jaunt to Bayfield
Monday, July 7, 2014
Thirteen hour work day for Dale so I was pretty much on my own today. Recently I stumbled upon the blog of someone who had recently been to Bayfield. She mentioned a couple of places to which I have never been. One was Big Water Coffee Roasters and the other was Greunke's Inn.

Dale and I went to view a house on Nebraska Row. It was incredibly charming and the view of the lake was fantastic.

Island 2014: Second Trip - Ferry Line

Breakfast at Ella's. Could not believe the line for the ferry this morning. It went way back past Dale's apartment. Dale says he's never seen it so long.
