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 […]

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 […]
Lake Florida sunset Jan. 3,2012
January 4, 2012 by
Tuesday night we had another beautiful sunset at Lake Florida. It is quite a challenge to take some of these pictures with all of the boats and lifts stacked on the beach shoreline. Sometimes we feel like Billy in the Family Circus cartoon as we climb onto a stack of docks, hold onto the canopy […]
