Recently my siblings and I went to the Lake of the Wood Lodge in Southern Oregon. It is half way between my brother's house and my sister's house in the Fremont-Winema National Forest and they often meet there for lunch or dinner.
This time and I joined them for a yummy lunch. While I have been to the lake numerous times I had not been to the lodge and was in for a special treat.
Dad's doors
My dad's doors and panels are in the lodge! posted about it today Father's Art - Lake of the Woods which is very fitting as it is my dad's birthday and he would have been 92 today!
Let's take a look at his art and then some of the lodge.

The Lodge
The lodge is located on the Lake of the Woods lake which covers 1,146 acres (4.64 km2) and is a popular summer destination. My sister and I got there early and took a quick walk to the lake.
There is a general store and cabins next to the lodge.
We ate inside, as it was a cold winter day. The dining area has a very cozy feel and a great fireplace.
There is also beautiful outdoor seating with a great view of the lake. Kristen said that is where they usually eat.
It was so great to spend time with my family at such a beautiful place and so special to get to see my dad's art.
