Edited post to add names.
Meant to do that and just forgot!

Someone needs to turn the camera around, Mitch.

What fun. Thanks for the pics and the turn around one cracked me up.

Love the photos but need more.
Was lunch at lodge as good as expected?

Looks like fun! Glad you posted proof that you guys were ok after Mitch's sloppy Joes!
Campground looks really nice --

And then some!
It was delicious and I, of course, ate too much.
I said, "Diabetes be damned!", and chomped on those dumplings almost non-stop...

Mitch - I have your little iron skillet. I will see when I can make a roadtrip to check out the resort and deliver your skillet.!

Dang! That's my Mom's. I should have just walked it home!!
I would be more than glad to reimburse postage... ?
(maybe one of those mail shops so you don't have to do any packaging?)

I am home (power pedestal issues at my site).

What a great bunch of women...I enjoyed meeting you all and was looking forward to more tick-infested walks, weather permitting (which was doubtful).

Be safe going home and see you down the road.

Weather is terrible today, thunderstorms predicted all day and there is a loud one going on right now. I told Cheryl to go to the Lodge, or if time come here, she is getting organized to leave tomorrow. I don't think any of the power pedestals were safe. The ongoing budget standoff in Illinois is far reaching but even before that $$ to state parks were down. Thank you for the egg cooker it is so cute! Haven't tried it out yet though.
I enjoyed what time I was able to spend with you all and happy that Cheryl and Roberta came to my yoga class yesterday. Sorry I missed meeting Eileen.

I came home one day early or I would have needed a raft to leave the park. Just a couple more pics from the gtg. Sorry they are a little big, but resizing them one time took forever.
