March 23-Fishing & Curling in Kandiyohi County

Fishing We blew snow in the morning again and then headed out from the resort to have some fun! Our first stop was the annual “Let’s Go Fishing” Fundraiser. We had Dad’s Belgian Waffles first and then headed to the silent auction tables and also participated in the live auction. This little girl got just […]

Dickerson’s Lake Florida Resort The Sunset 3-7-13

Another cold winter day at the resort. The drifts still surround the cabins and it looks like spring won’t come until May! Once again the sunset was the best part of our day! Wasn’t it beautiful?  

The first sunset in March – 3-1-2013

Here it is – the first sunset in March at Dickerson’s Resort. Many of our pictures have been from the same spot. The snow around the cabins is so deep it makes it hard to get around! Just 1 picture today. The sun was so bright and the sky was cloudless, so it disappeared quickly! […]

Dickerson’s Lake Florida Resort Sunset 2-27-2013

Another beautiful sunset! The snow drifts between the cabins This is the view of the sunset from the deck of cabin #9. Thankfully, we don’t have snow in the summer -you can barely see Lake Florida over the drift! 🙂   This picture is zoomed in which makes the sunset pretty dramatic! The END! That’s […]

Snow vs. water

It’s another day of creativity at the resort. I got the idea to pack a 5 gallon pail full of snow and have our fans on Facebook guess how much water would be in the bucket when the snow melted. We got many people to guess-anywhere from 1/2 inch up to 7 inches. I brought […]

A little Dickerson’s winter humor.

Maybe winter is getting too long or maybe I’ve spent too much time trying to think of creative ideas for Facebook. One day as I was in the resort store riding my bike I looked out and thought, “we should do something with the canoe!” ‘Something’ would not be easy as the canoe is on […]

Valentines Dinner in cabin #12

The Wine We invited all of our neighbors on the east side of Lake Florida and a couple of other friends to a Valentines Dinner. We told the guests we would make a big pot of chile and drink lots of wine. It was time to check the wine supply. As you can see below, […]

Dickerson’s Lake Florida Resort – the Sunset 2-5-2013

The Lake Forida Sunset It’s been cloudy for many days so have not had a sunset to show you. Today was the day! The sunset always seems to slip away so fast!   It won’t be long and the sunset won’t be behind the point behind the trees! Spring is coming!

Dickerson’s Lake Florida Resort sunset? 1-28-13

Yesterday, Sunday we didn’t have a sunset to show. Today was a very gray/white dayalso. Not much hope of a sunset, but I told Bob I had to show you something! I heard the weatherman say that visibility in the Willmar area was .22 miles. I thought -I can show you what we can’t see! […]
