Labor Day Weekend

It was a beautiful Labor Day Weekend. It did rain but only part of the time. This beautiful picture was shared with me by Jack Barden one of my favorite guest photographers. Thanks Jack! The Zaremba Family who own Blackwood cabin that we manage where soaking up the last rays of summer this weekend while enjoying their cabin Paul and Danny determined to get the last jumps in off the raft for the season. Paul was happy to have the diving board back this summer that way when Danny tries to push him off he has something to grab on to, to stay on the raft Picnic lunch was enjoyed by he Voight family at the dock. Roy and Gail where enjoying their 3rd trip up to the resort this summer. Memorial Day, Labor Day and a week in the summer is the perfect prescription for summer time Adam and Samuel agree with their parents. These two fishermen could be guides later in life. They catch the most fish as a tandem duo with their dad Roy that I see all year. Now it is time to get back to school Speaking of school we had John and Joanne Baldwin stop in. They had not been to the resort in 60 years. John was in Maynard, my grandfather, health class back at York High School in Elmhust back in the 50's. John came to the resort in the 50's with his parents. John and Joanne became campers enjoying the Minocqua area with their family staying at campgrounds in the area ever since. Joanne was a little tired of camping and John said I know the perfect place to go to. They are enjoying a few days at the lake and reliving John's memories of fun times at the Cliff and his favorite teacher, Maynard Black Side note: Our old bell you see in front of our house I get asked about a lot. It is the train bell off Clifton Keith's train back when he built the resort. Clifton and Lulu used it as their dinner bell to call the family to dinner and we did too until cell phones made it easier to track down family members. We still ring it once in awhile when someone's phone is not with them. If you hear 5 bangs of this bell watch the family come running to the house Our remaining cabins open for the weekend of Sept 8th I have reduced to a 2 night minimum Restawhile 2bdr, Norway 3bdr, Holiday and Red Pine 4 bdrs are all open for the Sept 8th weekend We also have Kaubashine 3bdr open starting on Saturday the 8th.
