A tale of two weekends…
Saturday heats up, Sunday cools down..
Mother Nature (true to her nature), is splitting the weekend Jeckle and Hyde style.
Saturday looks to continue the trend of toasty days with temps near 90 and a lake with 2 feet or less.
Sunday will be a little more back and forth as various rain clouds pass through the area with chances of a shower or two, WITH COOLER TEMPS
NO MATTER THE WEATHER, it still is prime fishing season as the walleye catches have not slowed a bit. Even with the bug hatches anglers are reporting some great hauls.
On the local front, we are but a week away from Vermilion’s festival of the fish which takes place downtown. Various events, food and vendors will attend with live music, fireworks and a lighted boat parade all scheduled. More info to follow.
Speaking of live music, don’t forget we also have Third Thursday events in Vermilion. Where musical artists are scattered throughout the downtown every third Thursday evening of the month, to go with dining and drinks from local restaurants.
Of course you can top it all of with a cool down AT THE POOL HERE AT YOUR HOMEPORT, OR AN ICE-CREAM CONE AT DAIRY DOCK, OR EVEN A ROUND OF MINI GOLF FOR THE KIDOS.
WE HOPE TO SEE YOU DOCKSIDE!
