Life by the lake.

Well I have made it too onederland as they call it.., only 10 pounds to go and I will be at my goal for weight loss. I am so out of clothes and winter is coming. I need to go rummaging here soon to find something feasible for me to wear. I have plenty jeans. Sweatshirts are a must. Not much for regular clothes though.

We are looking at houses and think we might have found a keeper. It is a ranch with a finished basement (a room for me to have my mess where DH does not have to see it. The neighborhood is wonderful for me to get out and walk in. I think that will be enjoyable for both Pablo and I. Two apple trees in the backyard, and room to plant more, lots more. Jeff wants a haralson tree and I would like some blueberry bushes and maybe a cherry tree. The lot is huge almost a whole acre with woods as our backyard neighbor. We will have deer and probably some bear in the yard, but you know that is okay. I think it would be cool looking out and seeing a deer wandering around.

Jeff's work is going good. He is getting busier all fo the time. All in all we love it up here. I will be kayaking by next year. I plan on taking some classes and learn how to do this then I am going to Lake Superior to the Apostle Islands, my dream kayaking trip.

We are even talking about getting snow shoes. That would be fun for both of us with all of the snow. I don't see us on a snowmobile, but I do see us happy here. Missing the kids will always be, but they have their lives too.

Anyhow life is good in the northwoods. Come see us!
