Summer of 1999 at Lake Sapphire
The first year at our cottage!

Carol found this cottage in the fall of 1998, but we put off a deal until winter. Then March 21 of 1999, we went north to take one last look before signing the papers on April 15th
The cottage was in great shape, it came fully furnished with boats, furniture, appliances even silverware!

We had to imagine the water, because it was frozen solid!

Okay, it looks like a good deal, lets do it!
Every cottage needs a pontoon boat, A week after we closed, we found one of those too! It's old (of course)
We dropped in in the water on Arpil 25th and took our first chilly cruise around the lake!
Now tht we have a few boats, we had to build a dock to get to them.

The first summer at Sapphire was a dream come true!
