This summer at Riverside Lodge
We've been having fun in between the rains with fishing and some camping. The bugs this year are doing well again, mosquitoes and bulldogs are hungry as ever, like most July's. There is slim chance of forest fires right now.
We haven't taken on any major projects for this summer, doing repairs and maintenance and building a few small sheds and some equipment. The summer is going by fast though and with a few fishing trips lined up and the odd weekend of fun it will be hunting season again.
Lily caught her first fish this week and now it is "Dad can we go fishing" every day. She is going to make a fine fishing partner and probably guide one day.
The walleye are biting at Darcy's on minnows and spinners, on days when the wind is right and the sun is up. Not many people fish these waters because of the size, and the price of fuel.
The Elk are calling now and the deer are looking good in their velvet. The fawns are starting to run with the does as we see them out in the open trying to get some breeze to fight off the bugs.
I have been joining more and more hunting forums and inet advertising sites to get some of our hunt specials advertised. (I will post up some of those soon.)
The economy is getting pretty beat up lately and as a result we have more than a few cancellations. I hope that it can turn around soon and something is done to bring the price of fuel down to a reasonable amount. We have not seen the worst of it yet though i believe, so good luck to everyone and let's hope we can still enjoy the things we love while we scratch out a living.
On that note i will leave to continue my marketing campaign and crunch out deals for the remaining hunts that have become available.
Hang em' high!

Lily graduated last Saturday from high school. We are so proud of her accomplishments and know she is going to add great things to the world as grows.

Avoid Toronto airport if you are flying to Canada! Especially avoid Air Canada.
They are not hunter freindly.
