Smith Family Visit

The Smith Family was so kind to share their photos with us! Thanks!

This owl was hanging around the Retreat all week. Makes the coolest noises. 8-6-09

Owner Response: SO THAT'S WHAT WE HEARD!!!! We heard that owl too, when we were over there last week cleaning the house up and replacing the sink. We looked for it, but never saw it. It was out there a long time. The first time we heard it, it was in a tree near the laundry room. The kids saw it fly over towards the mercury light, by the garage, but my husband and I never saw it. It was LOUD! We thought it was a screech owl, but from this photo you took, it looks like a Barn Owl. Was it a bigger sized owl???

Pet bass looking for handouts.

8 inch Bluegill. Of course, he gets thrown back to get even bigger!

Another nice bass.

Beautiful Spring Day to Play

The kids got a chance to take a spin around the pond.
I don't know who's winning the race.
She's catching up!
Angel couldn't resist jumping into the pond. She loves the water!

Jose & Lisa's Photos from Spring of 2008

Here's a few we took last spring when we stayed I think it was in April or maybe May.  Feel free to use any of them.  We had a blast and Mystik is a great fisher-dog too!  At least when she got her feet out of her water bucket anyway.  Take care.  See you soon again I hope.
 
Jose, Lisa & Mystik

Mystik is just watching the fish!

Aren't they pretty?

Snowy Sunrise

Wednesday, December 31, 2008

Early December Snow

We went from a few inches of snow in the begining of December, to over 20 inches of snow by Christmas Eve.

_____________________

This is what the picnic tables looked like on Christmas Eve! Lots of snow. It rained that Saturday and we lost a lot of this snow.
We still have a lot of snow on the ground, but not this much.

Great place for a Family Get-Away

Play games.

Cook up a great mean in the roomy kitchen. Go Jim! Cook those eggs!
CHEEEEZZZE!
