Our last week at Rogers Camp...........

Nothing real exciting since my last update.  Been out fishing just about every day, as long as the weather/wind cooperates.  Roger and Gloria's daughter and son-in-law spent the week with them.  Nice young couple, and we enjoyed spending time with them. We met another nice couple from PA, Hank and Shelly and their three children!  Very nice people, and the kids were a lot of fun!  A little disappointed this  year with the camp.  They no longer supply fire wood, which they have done FOREVER...........and the grounds and cabins are not being maintained or updated at all.  So we did some checking this year for the availability of an extended stay at several other camps.........

Anyway we still enjoyed the time we could spend fishing..................however I swear the fish were getting smaller and smaller as time went on............For example, here are just a couple from the two days that Rich went out without me ( too hot!).

 SMALL....................................


SMALLER!!!............................

And on our next trip out..............VERY VERY SMALL?  Yes there really is a fish on that hook!!


We did catch a couple of perch that were not quite as embarrassing!!!!



And so the story goes for the last days there.    Here are a couple of pictures I took from the lake.   We see this plane quite frequently land on the lake and docking at the campground adjacent to Rogers. 


Or just soaring overhead.......


And I love watching the geese....So pretty.


We had a couple of campfires the last week, but on the Thursday before we left the owners, Dean and Cherie Rogers joined the group.   You may remember last year that I asked for prayers for Cherie as she was undergoing a Liver Transplant.  It was so great to see her this year.  Lots of problems initially after the surgery, but she is feeling great and looking wonderful!

Here's Dean and Cherie.  Dean brought along his guitar and sang for a long time, sharing some good old Country tunes! Great voice!!



I missed the picture of Roger, Gloria and their daughter and son-in-law!!! DARN!!  But this is the couple from PA, Hank and Shelly, who were just married this past winter.  Their three kids Tucker (his) and Conner and Mikaela (hers) were there enjoy SMORES!  But Shelly makes them with Peanut Butter cups instead of Hershey's Chocolate!  They really looked good!


An Rich and I ---------Yes it was a little cool out that night, thus the flannel shirts and sweatshirts!


And coming back to camp our last night out fishing, I caught a real nice picture of the sun setting, behind the camp.


And then it was all about packing up and saying goodbye to everyone.
