Northwoods Lake

Had a fab-u-lous weekend with The Wonderful MG at his new cabin in the northwoods of Wisconsin. He and his Lovely Partner purchased a serious slice of heaven on the edge of the clearest lake around. Like MG says, it's basically a bowl of sand filled with perfect water. We spent the weekend doing exactly as we had been instructed to do by our hosts: we played in water, ate, played some more, ate, lay around, ate, and slept in. I STILL can't find my USB cable to upload my photos, so I was forced to steal MG's from his facebook page!

Here is my youngest and Lovely Partner on the pontoon. Youngest was never far from the fishing pole - she's a native Minnesotan after all. Only a few nibbles but folks around us were catching nice large mouth bass.

Here is yours truly and hubby. I look more and more like my father with each passing year. Pretty soon I'll be sucking on my front teeth and eating 2 packages of graham crackers dunked in milk at bedtime. But I doubt I'll start smoking Swisher Sweets.

The twins, doing what they do best.

I started a google image search for "old pontoon" and this came up. Funny.
But MG's is much nicer.


The next "old pontoon" image to come up was from his blog!!!!

A HUGE thank you to MG and Lovely Partner for sharing paradise.

So what's the problem with Swisher Sweets??? I've had one or two in my time. Lovely pics and glad you had a wonderful time.

I'm so happy you had a good weekend, I'd seen you tagged in most of those on FB, but you're play by play was very fun.
As for the resemblance to your dad, oh well, in my family my sister and I appear to be on the path to being clones to my mom.......with my sister, it's already very scary, they are 20 years apart exactly, and my poor sister, she's had folks ask her if my mom is her sister........YIKES!

I have many fond memories of a northwoods lake in Wisconsin (or "Sconnie" as I like to call it) where some relatives had a cottage. Beautiful country.

I'm glad you had a great weekend. Everyone deserves some time off to just enjoy themselves. Please have more joy and peace, it's good for you!

That looked like so much fun!!!

Now, I'm waiting to hear from you on another radio appearance! We loved you, in fact, got a lot of positive feedback!!!!!

Ahhhhh, look wonderful!

Little Sister said...

Sis: you do look more and more like dad-but trust me, your breath is just fine. You can sit in the back seat of a sedan and I would not have to roll down the window for fresh air...oh but I miss him!

Sheletta: I LOVED MnMom on the Kevyn show, so I hope you get another shot, soon! And, she is just getting started.

Great pics from an amazing weekend. I look exactly like my mom, and I have her super spazzy personality too. I guess you just can't city hall, can you?
