Sept. 21, 2013

Sept 21, 2013
Today is the day to do the flowers.  I have been saving my favorite flower pictures until the day came that we didn't do much.   It was a football day, and we couldn't get the Badgers, but we see they won.  We're hoping the rains hold off for us on Monday, so we can do some outdoor things, but if not, we'll take in some of the museums in the area.  We are so impressed with this area.  I think I could live here.  We did a little geo-caching this afternoon, and ran into a salty old fisherman on the pier. He moved here from Grand Rapids, MI ten years ago.  He said the lake rarely freezes over completely  during the winter, and it has only been zero or below about 10 times in the last ten years.  He also said they don't get that much snow to shovel, either.  He is also a very good friend of the man, that a friend of ours in Waunakee wants us to meet.  Odd how these things happen.   It is truly, a picturesque area, with the small towns hugging Lake Flathead and the mountains beyond.  I haven't discovered a quilt shop yet, but we'll search it out.
