Two days ago, April 17th, we had boat races on Lake Florida and today the boats are on “ice dock” The sand beach which was so visble is now covered with snow. The weatherman predicted cold and snow and he was right. We are very thankful-we only received about 6 inches rather than the 12 […]

Dickerson’s Lake Florida Resort – A Long, snowy winter
April 20, 2013 by
2013 has been a snowy, windy winter. At the resort, we get some pretty spectacular drifts around the cabins. 1 inch of snow can easily turn into a four foot drift if the wind is from the west or northwest. Here are some pictures of what it looks like at the resort in the winter. […]
Snow vs. water
March 9, 2013 by
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 […]
Relaxing on a cold, blustery day at the lake
February 22, 2013 by
Sometimes, in the middle of the winter when you’ve had just about as much blowing snow as you can stand, you just need to take a break. That is just what Sasha and I did. We picked the spot on the floor right next to the furnace register. The cats and I can never be […]

A Big Resort Project – The Chairs
April 22, 2012 by
We have a project for the resort that was started many (I mean more than 25) years ago that has never been finished. One day we had a conversation about it and decided that 2012 would be the year to finish. We used to have Adirondack chairs at the resort. About 50 years ago, Bob’s […]
