Homage to the Lake Cabin

Last weekend our good friends Beth and John invited us to their family lake cabin in celebration of John’s birthday.  The cabin is on Red Cedar Lake, near Birchwood, Wisconsin.

We biked, boated, talked, ate, drank wine, went for pizza, and generally had an all-around good time.

Truth be told, there were actually five of us there: Beth, John, Ellen, me, and the cabin.  Lake cabins bring a unique energy to any gathering.  Depending on closeness to metro areas, they usually are of varying degrees of rusticity.  This may be from nearly suburban to virtually no amenities, (although our experience on Big Carnelian Lake earlier in the month may be an outlier).  But they almost always share a emphasis on nature and the water.  They will often also share the culture and personae of the small towns located nearby.

At any rate, we had a fabulous time.  Thanks Beth and John!
