« Previous	The Last Beastly Hot Summer Weekend?	Next »
	August 26th through 29th, 2010

We arrived to a starry night and awoke the next day to blue skies, a south wind and hot air temperatures.

The north end of the lake was wavy all weekend. The lake temperature held at 77°F, down from a peak of 84°F mid-August.

The clear skies allowed all in the northwoods to observe a setting Venus in the west and several very bright passes of the ISS during the early evening.

With a little over 6 months to go until the 2011 tree tapping season, all the wood to be used to fire the cookers is cut, split and stacked.

There was no rain last week. It should be no surprise that the lake is an inch or so lower than last weekend. It looks like we may be entering a wet weather pattern for the next few days. That should help, but we really need a wet Fall to preserve or maybe extend the meager summer gains Lucerne has enjoyed. The Annual Knott Lane Tourney is to be held on Sunday, September 5th. We are still looking for a few more golfers to fill some tee slots. Both Golfers and Non-Golfers are welcome to the post tournament party and award ceremony at the bar afterwards.
