The Northern Lights Resort owners, Pat and Tom, decided to throw a Thanksgiving in July dinner for this week's guests and Monday was the event! All the guests were notified through email before their arrival about it and asked to bring a side dish. Most all of them know each other already from living close to each other… Continue reading 07.15.13 Thanksgiving in July!

07.11.13 Chipmunks, Loons, Awnings and Chives ~~~~~
My old boss Donna sent me this when we first moved. I don't think I've ever included it in a blog post. I guess this sign was talking about us since we retired up north! We'll be back south during the winter but at least for now we're retired Northerners. We have two little chipmunks… Continue reading 07.11.13 Chipmunks, Loons, Awnings and Chives ~~~~~
07.08.13 Super riding toys!
Some of our previous guests brought really cool water toys for pulling behind the boats or just general water play. This week’s guests brought some and I took pictures to share. Our friends who have camps probably see these things on the rivers and lakes all the time but for us water deprived folks it’s… Continue reading 07.08.13 Super riding toys!
07.04.13 International Falls Minnesota Independence Day Parade!
For Independence Day Roy and I went into the nearest town (population approx. 6,900) International Falls for their parade. I tried to not expect anything like our parades especially the New Orleans variety and was pleasantly surprised at how delightful it was. I believe all the emergency vehicles from all surrounding towns were in… Continue reading 07.04.13 International Falls Minnesota Independence Day Parade!
07.03.13 AT&T Store Representative LIVES to see another day
At least you know by the title that there was no murder involved in our visit to the ATT store today. We drove the 100 miles to Virginia, Minnesota to the tiny little ATT store there. A very nice young man named Mike asked if he could help us. As nice and briefly as I could… Continue reading 07.03.13 AT&T Store Representative LIVES to see another day
07.02.13 A T & T – grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
This post is mostly for RVers but could be helpful to anyone who has the need of a GO phone. I believe this post rivals the Conroe, TX blog in length but definitely does not have as happy an ending. A GO phone is a prepaid phone which can or does not have to be renewed… Continue reading 07.02.13 A T & T – grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
06.30.13 Our Saturday evening surprise!
After a long hard Saturday work day which ended at 8 pm we were settling down in our RV and heard a little knock, knock, knock at the door. It was Tom, the resort's owner, with a present for us. He previously told us he was going to try to get this for us, but we didn't… Continue reading 06.30.13 Our Saturday evening surprise!

The 29th and 30th of June are the dates the Lady Slipper Festival is held here in Kabetogama, Minnesota. Since we work from sun up to sun down on Saturdays we planned to enjoy the festival on Sunday. We went to church first at 9 where we were blessed to hear the family I talked about in my… Continue reading 06.28.13 Lady Slipper Festival
06.27.13 Begin each day with a grateful heart
We're on the last of our days off before "Senior Citizens Hell Week rolled into one day" come around again! 10 more of them to go and I'm going to hang on to that light at the end of the tunnel like a mad woman! Still loving our life here and we will hate to leave this beautiful… Continue reading 06.27.13 Begin each day with a grateful heart
