Friends, Food, Fellowship= FUN!!!

This past weekend, the Gault's and the Sumetz headed up to Detroit Lake for some fun and adventure. We arrived on Friday night and started off the weekend with some chicken enchiladas and then headed outside to the "fire pit" for some fellowship and s'more making.

It was a perfect fire for roasting those marshmallows

We also played a lot of games. Seth and Natalie brought up a new game which was pretty funny. After we got the rules straightened out the game was made a little easier.
Have to play some Settler's :-)
Nat was the winner!!! Way to go Natalie.
I played Risk for the first time as well. We didn't have time to finish the game but it was entertaining.
Breakfast of pancakes and bacon on Saturday morning
Got to get a shot of McKinley
The lake is drained every fall so that any flood waters which might occur during the winter and spring have somewhere to collect. It sure is creepy to see the lake so low.
Seth and Matt would be about 8 feet underwater in the summer time here.

We headed out to the island (which isn't an island when they drop the lake). There was still a bit of snow on the ground.
I would say this sign is pretty accurate :-)
Nat and I walking back to the cabin
Seth and the Potato Gun
This shot is blurry, but the potato gun was not working and the boys were trying to get the pipe pieces apart using various means. They never did get it apart so now potatoes were airborne last Saturday
When Matthew and I woke up Sunday morning we found a dusting of snow on the ground. It didn't cover the road but it sure was pretty to look at.
