Food For Thoughts Raffle
We Have
Our October 2005 Winner!
My first trip
up to the "Northwoods" was when I was only 6 months
old. My parents told me they would put the playpen in the middle
of the boat and I would sleep for hours while they both fished
on Big Arbor Vitea-we stayed at "Buckhorn Lodge". Throughout
the years we stayed at "Perks Resort" on Little St.
Germain and various other resorts on different lakes. We eventually
found our way back to Big Arbor Vitea campground for many years
and to this day my family spend fathers day week on
Big Arbor Vitea at Ladwigs Pine Arbor Resort.
How great it is to sit on the porch of the cabin overlooking
the lake and listen to the call of the loon, smelling the fresh
pine, watching the ducks and their little ones make their way
around the lake, watching the daily catches brought in by the
fishermen, looking up into the clear sky at night and seeing
thousands of stars and waking up each morning when the first
motor starts to begin a day of fishing.
This year will be my 45th year going to the northwoods and
all of us still enjoy listening to the stories my dad tells about
the times he spent with his father in the northwoods. Our
mom passed in 2000 and her request was to have her ashes scattered
around the Lake because she loved the area so much.
Everybody should experience the northwoods for a week to get
the real meaning of "Up North"

Shore Lunch
Last September in the north woods of
Eagle River, Wisconsin on Dam Lake, my brother Bob and I were
on our annual muskie week. Caught a 22" Northern Pike in
late late afternoon. Clouds came in and then it began to thunder
and lighting. We scurried to shore in the pouring rain and ran
for shelter. Next morning realized my great northern fish was
dead on the stringer. We decided to drop it off in the middle
of the lake. As we were fishing along the shore line, we noticed
a Bald Eagle circling above the area where we dropped off the
dead fish which was floating. The Eagle flew down to grab the
fish, but the fish was too heavy to lift. The Eagle then landed
in the water and proceed to swim the fish to shore using it wings.
That Eagle dragged the fish about a quarter mile to the shore.
Upon reaching shore, the Eagle had the fish for breakfast. Tried
to fly but being so wet he decided to dry himself off on a tree
limb he perched himself on. All of a sudden, the tree limb broke
and he was in a free fall. He struggled to fly with his saterated
wings and was about to hit the dirt - - when he recovered. He
then flew to a highter branch where he draped his wings to allow
them to dry. We then went to shore to examine the breakfasht
scene. The only thing in the sand were a few fish scales and
Eagle talon prints. That Eagle ate every thing head and all.
