Scrapbooking Retreat

Sorry the blog has been  quiet for a few days, I was gone on a stamping Retreat put on by one of my favorite stores in Rhinelander, Nossers Stamp & Scrap.  And that is all we did morning noon and night for 2 1/2 days.  Papercrafting! Now I know not everyone reading this is excited about that. But just think of the thing you like to do best (fishing, hunting, staying at Booth Lake Landing!) and doing it without interruption for 2 1/2 days! I loved it!! I am in the picture, the yellow sweatshirt in the middle! And yes ladies I did learn some really fun new things for us this summer! retreat

A Day Of Cardmaking!

I was asked to come to church and help our caring committee make some Easter cards. So I packed up my gear and went to church. Much to my surprise there were 13 people there, men and women and most had never stamped! Then I asked how many are me making and was told around 100! Well we got started, made a mess and ended up with almost 100 but sure had a lot of fun and laughs along the way.  These will be given to our local nursing home and the world now has a bunch of new stampers!!!!!

Way to go Sarah!

One of our long time customers that comes south to us for vacation (from Washburn, WI) sent me an article from the paper that was worth sharing! Sarah Hahn bowled a 636 series and joined the 600 club at the alley.  She beat out her mother whose high series is 631 and the only other person in the club.  Way to go Sarah!!!!

One Last Snowmobile Trip

Well the warm temps have taken their tole on the snowmobile trails.  They were still great on Sat. so our last snowmobile customers took a nice long ride and enjoyed the sunny day. But by Sunday snowmobiling was done for another year.  It was a great season!

A Favorite Memory of Jay Armstrong

I wanted to share a special memory of Jay from the last summer he was here.  At our potluck dinner we always say a prayer before we eat. Jay always added to the end of the prayer these words: “And God keep the animals in the woods safe and warm.” At his funeral a friend repeated these words and then said that Jay had recently added the fish too and he didn’t know why. Well, we do… after he said those words last summer the kids said to him and don’t forget the fish! That is a memory we will always cherish.
