Petersen Lake (7)
Join us as we get to know our little piece of Canada located in the far reaches of North Western Ontario. Being the only piece of deeded property with a 300,000-acre expanse of Crown Land gives us lots of room to spread out and the opportunity to explore what this vast area has to offer.
We are part of a large river and lake system with many areas that have likely never been fished - something I plan to begin working on this year.
So check in from time to time and see how we are doing.

There is a French term know as Terroir that is used to denote the special characteristics that climate, soil, topography and other natural elements bestow upon things like coffee, tea and of course wine.

This years construction activities started off with a renaming of both people and places.
As you may recall last years crew – otherwise known as the We Work For Food Construction Company or WWFFCC – who, in polite society go by the names of Lou and Roman or as I am fond of calling them, Rocky and Bullwinkle....
The Petersen Lake Monster, affectionately known as "Bruce" put in a rare appearance this past week, but unfortunately for him it was on the end of Jeanette Nooren's line.

I have yet to decide if it's more exiting or satisfying to be actively looking for something that appears unattainable and finding it, or to have it unexpectedly drop into your lap.In either case the Fates have to be in your corner, and so they were in regards to the purchase of our Petersen Lake property in the far reaches of North Western Ontario.

When we first visited our Petersen Lake property, we were quick to decide that together with some general clean up and repairs, a small amount of new construction would be in order.
Perhaps a screened in porch or gazebo? Should we think about replacing the roof? Did the cabin foundation need reinforcing, and so on.
