FISH HOUSE AUGUST 2006

Sunshine on Lake Huron shore August 2006

One day the sunshine made the shore and water look
extra special. The water is still warm and swimmable.

August 2006

I used tile for parts of the stairway, instead of cedar poles. Routed cedar for the
trim. The bottom of the stairs I used tile too.

THE WHALE ROCK

Here are many views of the whale rock out in
front of the fish house.

it is one of the first things I see in the morning when
I look out the window with my cup of java.

I enjoy it

My first trip up every year, I look out to the water the first
thing to see the condition of the whale rock.

I am worried the winter ice will split it someday.

another beautiful day on the Island

New 12' boat

I picked up a new boat on EBAY. She's a little 12 footer.

My neighbor's grandson Chris and I took her out for the
first trip around the bays by our houses. It was a blast.

Right now I have just a trolling motor on it. I am looking for
a small outboard.

It sure was nice being out on the water!!!

Drummond June 2006

There is a lot to see on the Island.

Take time to enjoy the little things too.
Relish every sunset.

Drummond/ Second trip 2006/ June 2006

It was the second trip this year to Drummond.

The wildflowers were out everywhere.
The water was perfect.
The dogs had fun.

Logan's DI rehab

I tried to get Logan to do some rehab work in Lake Huron. He was more interested in drinking the water, instead of walking in it. He did seem to get some benefit from the exercise tho.

I plan on having him trot alot this summer in the water. I think he will be feeling better since both knees have been repaired.

2x4 BASICS BENCH

This trip I made one half of the 2x4 basics picnic table. Here is their website:

2x4 basics

They have some other interesting projects too. I might try the firewood rack next.
You can get the bench at Menards. The wood is extra. I need to bring my router up.
I want to round off the edges on the bench.
