06.18.13 The Chauvins visit Duluth, MN – part 1

Monday morning Roy and I took off for Duluth, MN to do some sightseeing and see an orthopedic specialist there about Roy's knee hurting.  Roy got a cortisone shot in his knee and we're hoping it will help the pain while he's in Minnesota.  He'll need to have knee replacement surgery sometime in the future… Continue reading 06.18.13 The Chauvins visit Duluth, MN – part 1

06.16.13 An emotional farewell to two dedicated co-workers and dear friends!

There are times in our lives when we are blessed by God to meet people that we immediately have a connection with and enjoy spending time with. We met such a couple when we arrived here and just had to go through the emotional experience of saying goodbye to them. Those who have been following our blog… Continue reading 06.16.13 An emotional farewell to two dedicated co-workers and dear friends!

06.14.13 RAVE, Glorious work day, Adult Quest!

First day back at work was a glorious day!  After thinking I should just get under Dora and hide for a while with my back hurting I’ve recovered and am now ready to conquer the world again.   Maybe not the world but at least my duties here at Northern Lights Resort.  I watered plants and… Continue reading 06.14.13 RAVE, Glorious work day, Adult Quest!

06.11.13 Three days off coming to an end!

Our three days off started out with me in bed for an extended period of time. No fishing, no church, no nothing but bed rest. I don't seem to remember that I'm 58 and overweight when I try to keep up with everyone. It's been years since I needed bed rest for my back but I… Continue reading 06.11.13 Three days off coming to an end!

06.05.13 The amazing pontoon boat adventure – starring Roy and Rosalyn!

Hi folks, I'm having great difficulty getting the blog to "look" right. It will not create separate paragraphs any longer nor will it allow me to put captions under any of the pictures after the first two. I'm going to post this anyway now and when I find out the solution to this new problem… Continue reading 06.05.13 The amazing pontoon boat adventure – starring Roy and Rosalyn!

06.04.13 Sunday afternoon drive to the Lake Kabetogama Visitor’s Center

Sunday afternoon was beautiful and Roy and I set out to see some of the area nearby.  We went to the Lake Kabetogama Visitor's Center.  It was closed so we couldn't go inside and get information but we had a wonderful time touring the area and seeing a different part of this neck of the woods than… Continue reading 06.04.13 Sunday afternoon drive to the Lake Kabetogama Visitor’s Center

06.02.13 Parade of boats!

We watched the movie Fargo last night which seems to be a spoof of the way people in Minnesota talk.  I wouldn't recommend anyone watching it since there's very graphic sex, lots of murders and filthy language.   If you've seen it I want you to know it's an exaggeration of how they talk but basically that… Continue reading 06.02.13 Parade of boats!

05.28.13 Dinners with the peeps!

  Sunday night our neighbors Annie and Russ invited us over for a wonderful dinner of giant fried burritos.  I've never eaten a burrito but I believe these are very different than the normal variety you get in a restaurant.  After we loaded the wrap with whatever we wanted we folded them over on two sides and then… Continue reading 05.28.13 Dinners with the peeps!

05.24.13 Second week of getting the resort ready to kick into full gear!

This week of work was very different from last week.  We're no longer all working together, but on our own shifts.  Roy and I work almost the same schedule which is mostly afternoon/evenings which means WE GET TO SLEEP LATE!!!!!!!  This is the fourth week for the other work campers and our second week. There's a lot to learn… Continue reading 05.24.13 Second week of getting the resort ready to kick into full gear!
