The sunset on Wednesday night went on for about 40 minutes. There were lots of clouds in the sky. We never know if they are going to cover the sun up or give us a spectacular sunset. The end! What do you think? It will be fun to see what tomorrow brings!
Hanging sheetrock in the cabin 1-27-14
This morning Keith & Travis came to start hanging the sheetrock in the cabin. Decisions now need to be made as to what walls will be painted and which ones will have wood on them. As we were coming back to the house the sun was setting. Notice that it is 5:19. The days are […]
Another Minnesota blizzard 1-26-14
Weather is always a topic of conversation in Minnesota and today was no different. We typically drive Bob’s pickup to church, but today we drove my car because it lives in the garage and has heated seats! We had our annual meeting so by the time we were finished and ready to leave it was […]
Sunset through the cabin window 1-25-14

Insulating the ceiling of cabin #9 1-24-14

Lake Florida sunset 12-27-14
We had another beautiful sunset at Lake Florida tonight!
Home Sweet Resort Home!
We don’t spend all of our time at the resort working on the cabins. On December 13th we went to Florida. We own a rental condo there and just like the resort cabins it requires cleaning and upkeep. Our friend Sandy took very good care of Simon and Sasha while we were gone, but they […]
The building continues at cabin #9
Today, Dec. 3rd was another day of building at cabin #9. The day started o.k., but in the afternoon the snow started. I guess Travis & Brian have had enough of the weather – they’re going home! The decision has been made. This is where the window will be on the second floor of the […]
