A glimpse of winter to start the season

We got camp opened and found that our phones were not working so we bought a satellite phone to use in case of emergencies.  It worked well for a few days before Irvin took an accidental swim in the Wathaman with the phone in his pocket!  So we have no phone this year.  We can only be reached via e-mail at fish@davinlakelodge.com. 

Our first fishermen were Bob & Manny and George & Irene Hamp.  Bob put his name on the top of the Pikemaster leader board with a 42 inch fish.  We are working on getting some photos from them.  Fishing was a little different due to a late ice and cool temperatures. Even so, everyone caught lots of fish and took home their limits.

My son and his family are currently visiting from Tennessee.  They arrived on June 5th and brought snow in with them which lasted through June 6th.  The weather is trying to straighten around and my granddaughter, Sydney, has gone from building snowmen to sandcastles in just a matter of four days.

Snowman to Sand Castles in just 4 days!!

This Tennessee girl loves to build sandcastles at the camp.

She was SO EXCITED to see this white stuff and build a real snowman!

She even had a carrot for his nose, thanks to Grandma Diana.

 

 

The sandcastles have gotten quite a bit more elaborate since she started coming at age 2.

Good food and great friends sharing fish stories at shore lunch

The Prince Albert Cosmopolitan Club is here now with 14 members.  They are bringing in fish left and right!  Here they are pictured at "Sandy Beach" following shore lunch.  I overheard one of them say, "Can it get any better than this?"  We don't think so!

Until next time,

Diana
