It's almost the end of the year!!

Gale and I hope Christmas was great for all of you and that you are looking forward to a fun New Year celebration, or maybe just a quiet evening at home. What ever you are doing to cheer in the New Year we wish you the Best all the way through it, and we also hope that a trip up to Rainbow is also in your plans.
 From the sounds of the weather back up at the Lodge we are glad we decided to spend some time in the Keys. Today it is a balmy high of -33, at home and that is not wind chill. The snow cover is way above normal and at this rate we should have a fairly good water level this spring.
 By now all of our regular guests and and people on our mailing list would have received our winter Gazette and new price list. We hope that you like the many stories and other content in it. We have been receiving many nice comments and this makes all the work we put into it worth while.
 We are celebrating our 30TH. year this coming season. We have lots of things that we are going to do on a weekly basis to celebrate this point. Come on up and help us have fun.

 I thought I might just post a REALLY COOL video that I took a few days ago, and this might just help you warm up. A friend of mine and myself were trolling 4 lines out the back at 8 mph with my boat on auto pilot. I looked over the side and this is what we saw for 15 minutes. I took these pictures at the end and was amazed how close they got to the engines. watch the main one turn the pod at the end and take them away. Pretty Cool !!

  Again we hope you all have a great 2014 and will talk to you soon.  BOB and GALE!
