The Island in Winter: Living Year Round on Kelleys Island

While Kelleys Island is only a few miles from the mainland, living on the little Lake Erie island during winter requires meticulous planning to avoid costly, and potentially dangerous situations. In The Island in Winter, Alexi Panehal discusses the various aspects of island life, from the quirky to the cantankerous, the generous to the genial and everything in between. She comments on the aspects of summer life, when the island is inundated with fair weather visitors and residents, as well as the stark seclusion the winter months can bring. A great read for people interested in life on one of Lake Erie’s very special islands. Books will be available for sale and signing at the event.
