September


This has proved to be the best month of the summer, warm and sunny as the leaves turn into brilliant color. Walks around the lake, quiet dinners with friends and an abundance of hungry blue gills end up on many tables. The flowers continue to bloom, but the deer are storing up for winter and hostas seem to be chewed down to the nub. The hummingbirds left for another year on September 14Th.

After the past couple of years, the oak trees seem to have fewer acorns dropping to the ground. Some say this is a sign of a mild winter. Who knows? It makes raking much easier. Fall is an ideal time to be at Island Lake.
The cottage at 462 Ogemaw road is going up for IRS Auction at 11:00 AM on Saturday October 10Th at that location.
