First ice skaters on Kelly Lake

Langhoffs were out ice skating on the clear and relatively new ice the other day. They stayed near to the shore just in case… It’s been cold and the ice is thickening. Roger (Photo by Shirley Birr on her walk-about around Kelly Lake)

Kelly Lake’s Tom and Karen Lutz celebrated their 45th anniversary today, November 29th! How Karen put up with Tom all these years has been remarkable! Congratulations to our long-time friends! Rog and Shirley (Photo by Shirley Birr)

Also, Tom has celebrated his 42nd anniversary of being 39 (for those who don’t want to crunch the numbers, Tom turned 71 Friday the 28th)! 71, Tom! Ghish! That dates me! Happy birthday! You look marvelous, simply marvelous! Tom retired as Principal from Abrams.
