Closed For Season

Lake House! The season has come to an end, and we closed the house up this weekend. Not that difficult to get things in order. But the time spent? Blah, it takes a solid 4 or 5 hours of both of us working.

Maria has made a discovery. Space Bags. You know those things where you vacuum the air out? Do not laugh. It is such a pain to get to the house in April and rewash every single thing since it has been in an empty, cold house for six months. Lori calls them "Magical ZipLocs", and you know how Maria feels about those ZipLocs.

But we are done! Got the extra beer, wine, and refrigerator stuff packed in the cooler. All outdoor needs are secure. Bedding, towels, and clothes have been Space Bag'ed. Furniture covered. Everything got done and we headed back to the city. Whew!

Goodbye lake. See ya in the Spring.

Sand Beach. Catch you boys next year.
