We held our daughter's reception in the tents we set up in the back yard, right on the lake. <br />I still miss it when the weather grows warm, but at least we build amazing memories for our kids.Martyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02366449267039641100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-44186388843302549002014-06-04T15:28:13.659-05:002014-06-04T15:28:13.659-05:00How wonderful, a resort on a lake!

I paid it off in 15 years of payments and the whole area was owned by a group of 12. We owned the land together and each owned our cabins. My wife Della and I sold it to my late wife's sisters in 1990's. They immediately tore it down and put up a new cabin. They were good years of memories. Our land had one of the only sand beaches on Lake Pokegama. Our sons still go back some summers and visit with the aunts at the old place today. L.
