Late in the afternoon on Tuesday, the backhoe was delivered to the resort by Swenson & Sons Construction who will be digging the footings for the cabin. The footings for the cabin will be dug tomorrow! Yeah! We’ve never been able to take a sunset picture here before. Sunset minus cabin #9! Tomorrow is going […]
Moving day at cabin #9

In the off season, one of the traditions we have at Dickerson’s Resort is to make donuts when someone helps us with a project. Marcus Building Movers have raised Cabins #7, 10 & 12 and had donuts. The tradition must continue! Sunday night , October 20th Bob talked to Eric Marcus to see if they […]

Full moon setting across Lake Florida
November 9, 2013 by
We not only have beautiful sunsets at Lake Florida, but sometimes the moon puts on a pretty good show too. However, the moon setting is not always as easy to get a picture of. It doesn’t set in the same place or at the same time (minus a couple of minutes) the way the sun […]

November 8, 2013 by
Draining the cabins Getting the resort & cabins ready for winter is a long process and most of it revolves around water. The cabin water heaters and water lines need to be sucked out and the docks need to be removed from the lake. When a cabin will no longer be used we need to […]
We’re a “little nutty” at Lake Florida!
November 6, 2013 by
We are very fortunate to have many trees at the resort to provide shade for the cabins. With each tree there is always a nut or seed that falls needing clean up! Many, many years ago, Bob’s grandfather brought a Black Walnut Tree in a coffee can from Lucan, Minnesota where he was from and […]
The last sunset in September

It’s hard to believe it is the last day of September. I quickly took this picture. I didn’t think the sunset was going to be spectacular. These last pictures are taken from the deck of cabin #8 God gave us a beautiful sunset that went on for at least 55 minutes! Wish there would have […]
