What a difference a day makes when it comes to a sunset. We got these pictures right before the fog started setting in – Fog in February? Isn’t it strange! A high of 47 degrees today – did I say it’s February in Minnesota?! One minute later the color had changed to this:
The sunset on 2-1-12 in Willmar
February 2, 2012 by
We had to leave the resort at 4:00 to do some errands and by at church by 5:30 to help with confirmation. Of course tat meant we wouldn’t be able to get our usual sunset picture from the resort. We took the camera along and hoped we would be somewhere with the sunset visible at […]

What a beautiful day we had again today! The wind was a little raw this morning, but even that got better as the temperature climbed. In the afternoon Bob’s cousin’s son and his 2 little boys came out to ice fish. I think the little boys had a better time going to visit great great […]
Sunset 1-12-12 at Dickerson’s Resort
January 13, 2012 by
Thursday was a very cold and windy day. Not the kind of day I want to be outside taking pictures, but Bob braved the cold and wind and got pictures of the sunset for us. Can’t believe how much it can change in 5 minutes! It’s just like the cardinals- you have to look quick […]

Thursday was a very exciting day. We usually have a male & female cardinal here in the winter, but this year we haven’t seen them. The male finally showed up! He was back at least 5 times throughout the day. They never stay long though. Hoping to see the female sometime soon. Of course they […]

Once again, the moon has been fascinating to watch as it gets full. It’s beautiful as it comes up over the east side of the resort in the afternoon or evening hours. You always have to be aware of the moon as it’s time and location are not as dependable as the sun! 🙂 It […]

Sunday was another one of those “didn’t know that was going to happen today” days! We had planned to go to 11:00 church since that was when Connie needed to sing in the choir. At the last minute, Bob decided we should go to 9:00 instead & then he would go to Menards and I […]
January, 7 – A Great Day at Dickerson’s Lake Florida Resort
January 8, 2012 by
What a beautiful day it was again! Early in the morning-like 5:00, there were fishermen already heading out onto Lake Florida! It’s kind of an eerie sound to here the ice augers when it’s so black out! We went for a walk in the morning to check out the lake and neighbors. In the afternoon […]
Lake Florida Sunset 1-6-12
January 7, 2012 by
The sunset at the resort on Friday was beautiful again, though not quite as good as Thursday. It was also quite windy which didn’t make it as much fun to be outside taking pictures. On the second picture you can see the skating rink that our neighbors made. There hasn’t been much skating which is […]
