It seems that every day normal work turns into a project. Today, I went up to the back yard to clean up leaves and clean out the hostas and day lillies. A tree had broken off years ago, but we had kept the trunk which held a flower pot each year. The tree stump had […]
Lake Florida Sunset 4-3-12
April 16, 2012 by
Bob went to St. Cloud today to continue a project we’re working on. I don’t remember exactly what I did -Â moved some sand on the beach, washed some cabin decks, put a coat of varnish on the window casings for cabin #7, etc. Getting the pictures of the sunset was probably the most important […]
And the beach goes on at Lake Florida

The clean up of the leaves that blew in continues. Here’s another picture of Bob cleaning the leaves out of the lake and off of the beach. We hauled the leaves to the garage apron of cabin #13. Normally, they could go right into the trailer, but it was being used for a different project.They […]

Lunch with friends
April 13, 2012 by
On Thursday morning we received a phone call from Wayne & Bonnie who live in Burnsville. They wanted to have lunch with us. (Maybe they secretly wanted to see if anyone was staying in “their cabin #3” 🙂 We had errands in Willmar so we met at The Oaks Restaurant at Eagle Creek Golf Course. […]

Today we had 2 “sightings” First, our favorite loon, the one who comes first and leaves last each fall was here to see us. When I went to get the mail I noticed that there were a couple of blooms on the Dianthus I had left last fall. What a breath of spring! A couple […]
Another day, another table-3-23-12
April 2, 2012 by
The table project yesterday was so much fun that we decided to tackle another one today. Today, the sun was shining so we got to work outside which made it even better. Since we had practiced yesterday, this should have gone more quickly today. It didn’t. Some of the holes didn’t line up and we […]
3-22-12 Today’s Project
April 2, 2012 by
Today’s resort project was putting a new top and benches on a picnic table. We are using Ultra Deck composite decking material. We hope it will last much longer than wood and will be drier to sit on when it rains. It was a gray drizzly day, so the work had to be done in […]
Let’s put the dock in!
March 22, 2012 by
The ice went off Lake Florida yesterday so today’s first project is to put the gas dock in. Because the sand is pushed up so much it is going to be a challenge, but we are up to it! Just so you know, Bob didn’t do all of that work by himself. The 2 of […]
