Wow! Great things are happening! The cottages only had a tiny, floating dock with a makeshift boardwalk (chintzy) leading to it. I just found 2 floating docks for Free on that lake about 3 doors down from my old cottage. I no longer have a boat on that lake but I'm sure my former neighbour would help me tow them to the new place. Then someone is also giving away a free dock on my lake. Docks are quite expensive so these are just Godsends! My high school friend who moved up here 2 years ago is doing handyman work. He agreed to come on my moving day & help with anything I need. As well - my lawyer thinks we can change the moving date to 2 days earlier to give more time to prepare for the renters. Fortunately it really is turn key - even the beds are already made up but I want to be sure the grass is cut, locks are changed & a few personal touches are added before they come.
Forgot to tell you the names of the cottages. Bears Den, Loons Nest & Lily Pad. I had so many bear, loon & frog items from my cottage. Now I'm picking up a few more. Got a loon guest book for $8. I know how to do themes. I don't want them to be full of kitschy useless stuff but everyone needs a bear toilet paper holder - don't they?
