More annual lakeside fun in the Northwoods

You may not find this terribly rewarding unless you're included here, so this is a good time for casual and random browsers to turn back before they get too caught up in the sweep and majesty of the proceedings and can't let go.

Guess Who's Here

Bill has finally arrived -- to a cold and dreary day, like quite a few lately. It's 20 August 2015.

Bill's anxious to get started, but we'll wait another day.

That's it, here we go. 21 August 2015.

Post-hike debriefing

Busy busy

The family-shared Point o' Pines, where Rob and Elke are presently in residence on this side of the lake

In due course they'll be moving back to their own house a mile over on the far side of the lake.
