Great Bear Lodge

What's more important to a blogger than free wi-fi at your hotel? I am in heaven, in Utica IL. I will be the cheap imitation Libby Lehman today and will try and charm the pants off my students until they forget how disappointed they are that they got me and not Libby. Hopefully Libby is staying dry and cool in the face of the hurricane.


We were surprised to see a gorgeous calorie laden basket here in the room when we arrived. Even though the theme here is Rustic the place is crawling with real orchids. I had them on my dinner plate too. I managed to forestall eating any of these goodies until way later when I tasted just a crumb of the peanut butter cookie. OMIGOD it has been forever since I ate a cookie, and forgot what heroin they are.


Dave took this picture of the car, and I just happened to be in the way. I want my sister Brooke to see that I am wearing the scarf she crocheted for me this past Christmas. It is the perfect thing to add that arty touch to my all black outfit.

This resort is sooooo neat with an indoor water park with a wave pool and huge hot tub and VERY BRIGHT LIGHTING. In our minds a hot tub needs to be in a dark place with lights under water and a tiki bar adjacent. The Tiki Bar is outside and behind the putt putt golf. The whole area here is quite beautiful and Dave will take lots of pictures while I am dancing as fast as I can with my miffed minions.

  1. You look ultra arty in your black outfit with a splash of color. Is that considered resort-wear? I thought bright all over was that.

    Why are your minions going to be miffed? I'm missing something (as usual). Have a fun time.
