Labor Day Weekend


The first weekend of September is bringing us great summer weather unlike any that we have ever experienced this summer. Highs in the 80 's, clear skies and just a slight wind. Lots of people are visiting with family and friends up north at the lake this long weekend. And if by magic, Mother Nature's time clock in Maple Trees, called Photosynthesis is now telling the Maples it's time to start changing the color of the leaves especially for the Sugar Maples. Various shades of reds and yellows are starting to appear.

Two Black Bear were taken the first days of the hunting season in our neighborhood by local families. It's quite a process to get the bear out of the woods, pictures taken and into the local locker for processing. The expensive decision is what to do with the hide, rug or mount.

Had a good visit with the owner of the Oak Point Resort this week. He said that business is going just great this summer. Just about doubled the 2008 numbers. He and his boys were putting up some new spearing houses for rental this winter for Northern Pike. Its important for all of us that a good vibrant resort be a part of our Oak Point community.

New Oak Point Newsletter came this week and we put a copy on our website http://www.oakpointestatesmn.com/ .
