         The life and times of Mark and Paula Persons
Monday, October 1, 2012:  Mark and Paula reminisced about a paver project on the lake side of Gilbert Lodge. 
Dave Johnson was back to lead the way on laying out and putting down bricks.
He and Paula anchored heavy plastic edging after class 5 gravel was spread and compacted.
Then the pavers went in one at a time.
Finally, the pavers were all in after the edge pieces were cut and more compacting was done.

It has been dubbed, the "Grand Lakeside Fire Ring."  A fitting name.
Then it was time to celebrated with Oktoberfest beer from the Capital Brewery in Wisconsin.
Paula bought bratwurst and beans, which she cooked in the fire ring.  Note the beans in the fire ring.
This wonderful food made for a well-deserved celebration of completing the project.
The Minnow sat waiting at sunset for another run on Gilbert Lake.
Quote of the day:  A fitting end to a great project.   Mark    < Back to previous story Ahead to next story >
