Which year's picture in today's review was taken nearest to Lake Michigamme?

2011

Good Wednesday morning!!
I concur; 2011 it is...

Presbytery Point, on Lake Michigamme

Good morning, everyone. Enjoying the tail end of sunny weather this morning, then comes the deluge!

Alex, have you come up for air yet?

Would like to know the history behind the name "Michigamme". American Indian derivation?

Nice slideshow today!

Just got off the phone with my mom and she is sounding more like her old self. The pain is lessening and they have started rehab with her. She will hopefully come home in 4 to 6 weeks. Praying and crossing my fingers!

Have a great day!

Deb, I'm hoping and crossing my fingers for your Mother too!. Sounds like she's progressing!

Deb so glad your mom is adjusting so well so far. Don't you think that we fear the unknown and when we finally face that unknown we learn that it's not so awful after all? Hope and pray that this is the beginning of a new and better life for your mother. Prayers for all involved in your family!

What good news, Deb!

Happy to hear it, Deb! Continuing to keep her in prayer.

I think so, Dunerat. I slept for 11.5 hours Monday night, took yesterday off and I'm still in a fog. What year is it?

It's 1966, Alex. The good news: there's a Beatles concert coming soon to a city near you. The bad news: the Wing has not yet been invented.

I heard that the old "North Gate" motel caught on fire. Any one know what happened ? We have stayed there many times in the past.

Found this for you, Shirley;

"Natives of the town say the name 'Michigamme' means "streaked waters", but
another source says it is the Chippewa word for "large lake"."

Perhaps this is the one(?)

Thanks, Waveaction, I suppose either one would work, eh?;)

We heard about the fire at the North Gate, which is now called, Trailside Lodge. I do hope they find out how it happened and rebuild.;O). The new owners did put a lot of work into it.
