As the sun sets over the lake on our last day here, we reflect on the many wonderful friends we’ve made, the fantastic experiences we’ve shared, and the amazing food we’ve tried and enjoyed.
Today, we attempted to pack in as many fun, lake activities as possible (before having to pack to go home)--wave running, shuffleboard, swimming, soccer, basketball, horseshoes, croquet, fishing, reading, picture taking, eating 7-layer dip, going to Famous Dave’s Original Restaurant for more of the best BBQ, and viewing our own private, spectacular fireworks display on the lake put on by our hosts and our cabin caretaker.
You’ve all heard my daily descriptions, Ross’s eloquent way of writing, and Mary’s musings, and now in honor of Father’s Day and fathers everywhere, Joel will share his perspective on our last day in Hayward, Wisconsin at the Tamarack cabins on Round Lake…
Perfect is the only word to describe our week here with Dave and his wife Kathy. We really have enjoyed getting to know them and the extended group of family and friends that made us feel so welcome. Paul, Mark and Chris, James and Colleen and the kids, John and Lance, Chris and Eric and all of the other Original Famous Dave’s people too numerous to mention.
The weather was absolutely amazing and to walk out of our cabins in the morning and to witness the sun hitting the lake surrounded by trees is something out of a nature mural. Taking the pontoon boat out around the lake and watching a bald eagle soar out of its nest was amazing. Deb’s family has always been such a joy to be with and the lively discussion and superb food are what I always look forward to. One surprise was getting to try Dave’s Wild Rice soup. I am a huge fan of soup, and I can honestly tell you that it was the best wild rice soup I have ever had! We will hate to say goodbye tomorrow but the memories and friends we have made will always be very special to us. I will also hate saying goodbye to the ribs, brisket, catfish, soup, and pizza! I know I will have to see Bev soon for more 7 layer dip, pizza, and quesadillas along with her incredible wit and charm she brings to the table. This has been just one more incredible trip with Deb’s family, and I am so thankful they think to include us on their many adventures. I could go on and on but one word describes the people, the food, and the location….perfect!
