The lake home is open for the season and we’re ready to go … nowhere. Now that Jamey is a teacher, we have to work around his schedule a little more. So the plan was to head down to our Okoboji lake home, and get everything opened up for the Read more…
We’re lucky to live in the incredibly dog friendly suburbs of Twin Cities of Minnesota.

So consider this my service Read more…
We’re halfway through our Okoboji summer, I can barely believe it! I spent so much time looking forward to this summer, and it’s gone by so fast. This was supposed to be the dream summer. Jamey got a job driving rental boats for Okoboji Boat Works. We bought a boat Read more…
