The Big Lake

A couple photos of the boys from our trip to Grand Haven last week. There is a small dune near the boardwalk that they climbed for a view of the channel and the lake. Lots of big smiles.

The air temperature wasa pleasant 84 and the water was up to 77. Beautiful.

Camp Roger 2011

In 1958 Isaac & Jacob's Great-grandparents took their Grandma to a family summer camp. A few years later, Grandma Krosschell went on her own. Some decades later Daddy and his siblings went for a number of summers, and this year Isaac and Jacob spent two nights there. Four generations at the same camp.

I enjoyed showing Nancy and the boys around camp and, despite some homesickness, they had a good time with their camp activities as well.

Isaac was in the Algoma cabin (one of the older buildings that Daddy slept in as well.)



Jacob was in Chippewa, a newer cabin with 'Michigan air conditioning' that is to say, an attic fan.

Garter snakes at the Nature Center.

Little Bostwick Lake. It's just how I remembered it.

Camp Belzer 2011 (2 of 2)

Friday was Family Day and Tim Fosnot and I attended with the boys and moms.

This was a sort of Sumo wrestling event; knock the other boy out of the ring.

The boys are already looking forward to next year, and are more motiovated to sell Christmas Wreaths to fund camp. We are accepting advance orders now.

Isaac and Jacob attended Cub Scout Day Camp this week, in Indianapolis, at Camp Belzer. With Nancy and Kris Fosnot as chaperones, they enjoyed a week full of new things. Here are a few images.
