Frost on the Pumpkin


Actually, there are no pumpkins up here at the lodge, but there was frost on the roof this morning! It did get down to freezing last night. At first glance, I wondered if we had some snow but not yet.

We are finishing up our winterization of the lodge and just in time! Mike has made storm windows for each window in the lodge. Since the lodge has shifted a bit since it was built - as you know if you have been here - each window had to be measured, cut and framed individually. They are mounted on the inside and you cannot even tell that they are up. It was a big job and Mike has been working on it for most of the summer.

The picture is of Mike putting one of the new windows up in the lodge. We still have two more items to get done before the project is complete and both are scheduled for the next two weeks. We are heating the water line from the well to the lodge and we adding insulation to the crawl space under the lodge. Then we will be ready for the snow and all the fun that comes with it. Just think, around the corner is cross country skiing, snow shoes and sleigh rides.
