Christmas in the Adirondacks has been spectacular! On Thursday, we walked across the ice of Minerva Lake where in the summer we fish, canoe and swim. My husband, who is an enthusiastic fisherman, visited the fishermen who had ice holes or shelters on the lake. One fisherman proudly announced that he had taken a 23 inch Pike this winter. For several years they dropped the water level in the lake which was not good for winter fishing. Now the levels are not as low and the winter fishing seems to be improving. In fact, on Thursday, we had several residents from Queensbury, looking for some winter fishing.
On Thursday night, we had dinner at the Owl of Twilight in Olmstedville. This is, without a doubt, the MOST ROMANTIC restaurant in the Adirondacks. We are pleased beyond saying that they have re-opened and only wish we were here year round so that we could become REGULARS! But we will be here year round in early July. Hows exciting!
Christmas was quiet. Our children are scattered throughout the US. We miss them, but have begun to build a tradition of friends!
