Martin's Lac du Flambeau Weekend

FRIDAY..

Here's Pat driving on our way up for a spectacular weekend with our friends Nancy and Bob ...

Wow, Long Interlacken Lake & Mother Nature were in perfect harmony for our arrival ...

Clear skys, calm waters ...

Beautiful flowers ..

And Nancy with Bob at the site of what would become on Saturday night, a late night filled with loads of laughter, wine and our own personal DJ "Wolfman Bob" dishing out great tunes....

Looking up from the dock to their beautiful home/property ...

Lucky to be spending the weekend ...

Looking down into the living room from the upper sleeping area ...


SATURDAY..

Here is the view from our bedroom when we woke up ... amazing!

After a morning run together and breakfast we hit the links at St. Germain Golf Course ...

Captain Bob, a man of many driving talents, led us in our 9-hole adventure where we all proceeded to leave large donations of golf balls in the trees and in the rough areas ...

Pat putting under the watchful eyes (aka added pressure) of Nancy & Bob's encouragement ...

Nancy hitting for a hole-in-one on the 576 yard par 5 4th hole ...great shot!!!

Mr. PGA driving away on another beautiful hole ...

After a challenging round of golf, we bee-lined it to the water....Here Bob is driving the Ms. Daisy's in the pontoon boat for a 3 hour tour (just kidding Gilligan)...

Another incredible weather day, today on Big Crawling Stone Lake where we felt like we had the entire place to ourselves .. and the loons

Nancy chillin with a wine ...

Leinenkugel Classic Amber also joined in the float, and he really added to the party let me tell ya ..Thanks Jacob!

Captain Bob safely guiding the ship ... with no hands on the wheel ..this guy is cool as a cucumber in that chair ..

Riff-raff in the back hanging out with Leinenkugel ...

After a spectacular home cooked dinner of salmon on the grill, corn, salad and a few bottles of vino, we proceeded outside since the air was right and the Moon was making the lake shine beautifully ...

The fire pit would be our party-place to bring in a very early Sunday morning and it was a blast!! Laughter, singing, dancing, no bugs, moonlight...what more could we possibly have wanted...

...except the endless supply of French White Burgundy ...smooth and fantastic!

Look closely on the left, Nancy is there with their beautiful home in the background ...


SUNDAY

Another beautiful sunrise from our guest room...and a much needed cup-of-joe (on the railing post) out in the fresh air of the lakeside ...

After another morning 4 mile(the girls walked) run we loaded up into the speed boat for a nice ride around Pokegama Lake ... and again, there were more Eagles than boaters on the lake so it felt like a private lake ...nice!! Here's Captain Bob at the command ...

Nancy & Pat in the Princess Section ...

A final goodbye to the boating and the lake before a quick swim and heading home ...
Good Times!!!!!!!!!!


Thanks Nancy & Bob for an amazing - wonderful - comfortable -incredible weekend! See you soon.
