    After a couple of days of windy weather we finished up at Monroe and Unnamed and flew to Goose Lake. Only a few trees down but no other surprises. Our machinery all started without glitches and we are up and running. The wood stove is merrily snapping and we are happy to be back…

    Do not be fooled by the open water in the background. We flew the airplane off the ice and landed in the river–the only open water around.

    We are almost finished at Goose Lake. Today, we replaced some more cabin supports and washed the decks with deck wash solution and the high pressure washer. We are very pleased with the results as the decks look new.

    The season is almost over. We are cutting and splitting firewood for next year. We also poured some replacement concrete anchors for our reef markers.

    We are at Goose Lake and we are getting our much needed rain (about an inch so far).  Fortunately, we got the Crabb crew into Unnamed on Thursday where they are still fishing and smiling in the rain.

    We left Goose Lake September 23. The weather turned very warm and we are experiencing a wonderful warm fall to follow the nicest summer ever. Unfortunately along with the warm weather this summer, we also had a nasty thunderstorm at Goose Lake that damaged our airplane. So, we are dealing with insurance companies and…
