The new year is upon us and I find myself looking back at the wonderful year I experienced with new friends, old friends and my wonderful family.
Ely brought me new friends; the Zimmerman’s, Thayer’s and Spry’s…
And old friends….My fabulous childhood girlfriends, Nancy, Jill, Kris, Kathie, Chris, Jean, Sue, Susan, the Diffley’s, Jorissen’s, and McGrath’s.
All a blessing to me and my family!
My Resolution’s in 2015…
1) Tell my family, friends, co-workers, food shelf volunteers, teachers, coaches, and neighbors, how much I appreciate all they do for me and my family and how wonderfully they do it!
2) Post more blogs with fewer words and more pictures to promote this wonderful place! My hope is for the small business owners of Ely to thrive. A secret little wish of ours is to own a quaint outdoor store on Sheridan Street, with amazing women’s fashions and top of the line fishing poles. 🙂
Here’s to many more wonderful years ahead in this beautiful corner of the world!
Great weekend with girlfriends, kicking-off our year o
f 50th birthday celebrations! 
My wonderful fisherwomen & fishermen!
A race across White Iron Lake to outrun the storm…thanks to the radar app on Mom’s iPhone…
Calm, sunny days too!
What a fun-filled year it has been….here’s to many more!
