From all angles it’s shaping up to be a beautiful late summer weekend.
So wishing we could have made our annual trek to Leland! Out of caution we canceled 😞
Oh how I wish I lived close enough to be there this weekend and get a sandwich from the Village Cheese Shanty!
I wish I could have been up there this year ...maybe 2021

Just heard the Oscar Mayer Weinermobile is in the harbor parking lot in Leland! Head down to see this iconic vehicle and say HI to the Hotdoggers.
Man. We missed it by days. Would have been cool to see that!
It drove by the house earlier. Very cool. 🙂
Last time I saw the Weinermobile was in Mc Allen Texas
Come down to Jackson to the Dog House & Junkyard Dog
I saw it in Canton MI with my son and John Kostyo.
Bummer! I have your whitefish.
Some of the nicest people on the river. 🤗
How fun!
Memories...😊

This is Joel Petersen. He is the captain of our beloved “Joy”. Just back from bringing in a catch of whitefish, he is doing a regular maintenance check to make sure she is running in tip top shape. #fishermanfriday #hugafisherman #freshlocalfish #commercialfisherman #commecialfishing #joyoffishtown
Hi Joel. Thanks for all you do. Have several pictures of “Joy” hanging in my house downstate.
Joy is great! Love to see her every year!
Leland wouldn't be Leland without her .
I was there several years ago and got some photos of Joy. Keep her in shape. Thanks. Hope to get back someday. Love that place.
Love the smoked whitefish
We stop and get smoked whitefish, pate’ and fish sausage every time. We were there last week!
Great place!
