When we got up this morning Bob didn’t think this would be the Big Day. That’s the day the ice goes off. When we got home from church there was quite a bit of open water. An hour later the wind came up and suddenly there was even less ice! Bob went to the neighbors […]
A trip to New London on 3-17-12
Saturday was a fun day. A trip to New London was in our plans. Last summer the town was “under construction” with new streets and a new dam being built. It is great to see the projects completed and we look forward to all of our guests going in this season to see the changes. […]
Friday at Dickerson’s Resort
The weather here in March is unbelievable. The snow is almost gone and the ice continues to get darker. Today we had a coffee break on the Adirondack Swing which spent the winter on cabin #1 deck. This is the view of the beach and Lake Florida as we are sitting on the swing. The […]
Sunrise on 3-15-12
This morning as we were listening to the radio they said that the sunrise was in the drivers eyes – I decided to head to the top of the hill to see! As I was coming around the corner, there it was. When I got to the top of the hill, it looked like this […]
The Lake Florida Sky 3-11-12
Today is the first day after turning our clocks ahead which means we have to adjust our thinking for getting pictures of the sunset. 🙂 At 5:46 Bob looked out and told me I’d better just go snap a picture because it probably isn’t going to get any better than this with all of the […]
Dickerson’s Resort sunset 3-9-12
The clouds and sunset started out very dark on Friday night. In the end we had blues and pinks! In just a couple of days we will have sunset times of 7:15. Not sure we’re looking forward to that quite yet. The resort season is quickly coming upon us and I haven’t done everything I […]
Fun at the Calvary Youth Auction
We’re so busy at church on Sunday’s during the winter it’s hard to imagine how we get by without being there in the summer. Sunday was another one of those days. We left at 8:20 as the choir sang at the 9:00 service. At 10:00 we were “in charge” of the 6th grade Sunday school […]
A day away from the resort
Yesterday morning I asked Bob what we should have for lunch. He said, “I thought we were going to St. Cloud to pick up our order and go to the boat show?” So, off we went! Our first stop was Fleet Farm to make a couple of returns. While there we ran into Cheryl, a […]
Lake Florida Sunset 2-19-12
Sunday was a gorgeous day with the temperature hitting 42 degrees. It’s hard to believe it is February in Minnesota! The weatherman does say snow is on the way-get ready! In the afternoon I went to the cabins to get measurements and ideas for curtains and blinds for the new windows. Simon & Sasha love […]
The Ice & the Sunset
Friday Bob went out in the afternoon to take pictures of the ice heaves and the resort from the north. The ice heaves are incredible all around the lake! If you have a lake near you, take the time and drive around to see. The docks and lifts look so lonely on the beach. It […]
