Will it freeze?
Sort of like “will it float” but different. For the last little while I’ve been thinking about being at our cottage for the day or evening when the water skims over with ice for the 1st time of the winter season. So, I planned a late in the year visit to the lake to see Read More …
Kneeboarding
The next generation is starting to master many lake activities that Eric and Scott enjoyed. This August long weekend Parker (7) and Dane (4) took their first of many spins around the bay on the kneeboard. I’m sure water skis & wakeboards won’t be far behind. Good time at the lake with family. The best!

Feeding Time
I’m up early and on the dock with two cups of coffee and it’s a sunny clear morning with a light south west breeze. After some reading and just sitting enjoying the view I’ve decided to take the kayak and get a closer look at the 7am feeding. Most days during the summer a small Read More …
