Well, here we are at the Lake Home and it is May 3rd. We tried to stay south long enough to avoid this exact scene. I guess we will have to stay to June next year. This is an unusual year and they are saying that we are running from two to three weeks behind on the foliage. Our lake ice out is generally around the 15 of April so it looks as though this is also 2-3 weeks behind. We did stop at home and unload what we could there and then headed to the Lake to unload the majority of what we had packed when we left.
Last year must have been the year of the pine cones which dropped millions of cones, about three times excess of a normal year, so John spent most of Friday raking and general clean up in the yard. Our house in Cannon looked great and our dogs did very well thanks to our daughter and our son in law. It is great to be able to go away for six months knowing that everything is taken care of. Thanks to both of them. We will begin our summer respite on Memorial day Week-end and would like any of you to join us for a few days of warm wonderful Minnesota summer. Hurry though it only lasts 3 months.
