Lake Life

2020 was up and down, simplified yet challenging, together and lonely, slow then overwhelming.

2020 was also the year that Nathan and I were fortunate enough to realize a lifelong dream of owning lakefront property!

The fact that it is in Harlan County is just sunshine on the waves.


We visited my Uncle Royce's cabin on June 27th and fell in love with North Cove.

July 7th I typed up letters to send to each of the owners of the 20 lots.

On July 10th, I received an email from a Mr. Nick Cusick who had been considering placing his cabin on the market. 

We took our first look at Cabin #10 on July 21st and closed on September 18th. 

Since then we have been enjoying every minute of making it ours.


Bird watching.



Shoreline walking.


Hot tubbin'


Beach exploring.



Teepee building.

Cousin fun.


Bike trailing.

Family night.

Loft lighting.



Frosty sunrise.

Backroad driving.


Fresh paint.

Tuck getting intimate with nature!

Movies with popcorn under blankets with lots of snuggles.


New color on the front door.

Matching shutters.

Amazing sunsets!





We have many hopes and dreams for this place and still cannot believe that it is ours!

May 2021 be a year filled with boat waves, sun rays and numerous lake days with great friends and loving family.
