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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
2-18-12 The Lake Florida Sunset
Saturday was a long awaited day. I went to Hutchinson to meet my longtime friend Jan and her mom Loretta. Jan & I have been friends since kindergarten (and that wasn’t yesterday! 🙂 ) Once again God came through at the end of the day and gave us another beautiful sunset at Lake Florida. This […]
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 […]
Lake Florida Sunset 2-16-12
The sunset on Thursday was beautiful again. The ice on the creek and the heaves make it even moreĂ‚Â interesting. […]
Out and about with Bob
On Wednesday, Bob left at 1:00 to go to a Southern Minnesota Tourism Meeting in Springfield, Minnesota. Five meetings are held in 5 different communities each year. Marlys Vanderwerf wasĂ‚Â the hostess who planned all of the activities. He always comes home with great little facts about each community. His first stop was the Chamber/CVB Office […]
2-9-12 The Lake Florida sunset
The plan for today is to go to the top of our neighbor’s (Al & Lilas’s) hill and get shots of the sunset. Some of you have been there many years ago. I have lived here for 30 years and have never been to the top of the hill! Just to be safe, we started […]
The beautiful Frost
Today was a beautiful day. We woke up to all the trees covered in frost. We’re very thankful we aren’t getting all of the snow like Colorado, but we sure could use some! Bob put the snow blower on the tractor today (just in case!) It was pretty cloudy all day so no sunset to […]
Sunday Sunset at Dickerson’s Resort
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 […]
