who knew that getting home to your parents would take a two hour car drive, a four hour plane ride, a three hour car ride, and a 30 minute boat ride?! we wondered if we would get over on christmas day to put-in-bay, where brooke's family lives, or have to wait until the 26th. this is one of the first times in the history of miller ferry boat line to run on christmas day. what a wonderful christmas gift!
you could hear the skim of ice cracking and breaking
up as the ferry got closer.
the william market to save the day. punching
through ice and the near freezing water!
one thing that keeps the ferries on lake erie are
frozen docks. when near freezing water hits the
sub-freezing docks, the water freezes quick. here's
a perfect example of one to two inch thick ice.
the ferry broke through the skim-ice for a third of the way.
frozen ferry ride.
can you find the trisler's car?
brooke's mom made our arrival extra special
by picking us up in their 'island' car:' a 1963
international scout that brooke envies!

The best two moments of Christmas were seeing Brooke and Andrea get off the ferry, and seeing Forrest come in the front door. Then I was completely ready for Christmas!
