Many years ago, author Ernest Hemingway was asked to write a short story using six words. His response? “Baby shoes for sale. Never worn.” (He also claimed it was his best work.)

Since that time, the six-word format has gained popularity as a fun way for everyone to get into the storytelling game. Now it's your turn. Tell us your Ely vacation story or favorite Ely memory in six words. No more, no less. We'll take the best ones and publish a collection before next summer's memories start anew.

Thanks for your submission – and for visiting us in Ely this year!
