The kickoff to the weekend, Friday, was a bit cool but had a great sunset, golf.
Saturday started sunny. Rain was to come later.
The lake is up an inch from last weekend. It currently stands at 13.5 inches below the nail. With all the rain predicted this week, it could be up several inches by next weekend.
The bar was opened on Saturday and Sunday.
Shot-glasses made of ice were the highlight of dice related drinking games.
Turns out that they are made for holding "Perma Frost Schnaps". If the mornings were any indication, humans were not good "Perma Frost Schnaps" vessels. Won't be doing that again any time soon.
The flowers are all over the northwoods. Lots of these guys.
Plenty of these also, but they are fading fast.
Many trillium are past their prime.
Many of these little blue ones too.
Construction on the north end plods on. The finishing work seems to take the longest.
The storms last Thursday may have slowed the progress last week. With rain possible almost everyday next week, I don't expect much advancement this week.
By Monday, things were looking up. The air and water temperatures were up (upper 70's°F and low 60's°F respectively), and the lake level was rising. Many skiers were also up and lets not forget gas prices ($3.459/gallon in town, up up up).
