I told you we were going in search of new sunset spots and yesterday we did. At 5:20 we left and went through the Environmental Learning Center the back way. Bob thought we should go to the Westby Observatory, but the sun was still too bright. Interesting what a difference the location can make. When […]
The sunset on 2-1-12 in Willmar
February 2, 2012 by
We had to leave the resort at 4:00 to do some errands and by at church by 5:30 to help with confirmation. Of course tat meant we wouldn’t be able to get our usual sunset picture from the resort. We took the camera along and hoped we would be somewhere with the sunset visible at […]

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 […]

The sunset on January 5th was so spectacular and lasted so long I just had to show it to you from beginning to end! I started out taking the picture from the south end of the resort as in days before. As the beauty kept expanding I went to cabin # 8 and climbed up […]
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 […]

Welcome to the first beautiful sunset of 2012. We had winds of up to 50 mph the last couple of days. It sounded like 16 freight trains coming by! Today was cold-only a high of 18 degrees, but the weatherman says 40 degrees by Thursday. Still no snow to speak of. Last night we were […]

There’s always something fun going on at Dickerson’s Resort. The beach car is fun-even mom’s get in sometimes! On Monday night we have our “all you can eat” pizza party. The pizza is made special for us by Jakes Pizza in Willmar, MN. If you wear a Lake Florida Shirt, you get “twice as […]
What we do
June 29, 2011 by
Thought you might like to see a few more of the things that keep us busy. We put up vertical blinds in cabin #5. They were too long so Bob had to cut them off. I have been painting a few screens in between guests. The rain makes it a challenge to find […]
