Boyne Mountain, Pastor's Conference 2005

The Front Door

This is the entry to the hotel. It is brand new as it has only been open a few months. They have yet to have a winter. It reminded me of Frakenmuth, but minus the great chicken.


The Entry Way

This was the sitting area at the hotel we stayed at. I truly loved the rustic, outdoor setting. All that was missing was the snow.


The Long Walk

This was only part of the almost 500 steps to the top of Boyne Mountain. It was a peaceful walk, but one that left me slightly out of breath. Guess I need to spend more time exercising and less time watching football.

I can not be sure exactly what these red bushes or trees are, but they paint the landscape beautifully. God does create some marvelous things.


Park Bench

This bench must be a wonderful place to come to sit and think, or pray. I imagine that over the years many couples have come here to spend time together in this quiet piece of the world.

This is the top of the "mountain" that I climbed on our short break. It was quite beautiful and peaceful. Someday I hope to get on a higher mountain.


The Ski SLope

I must admit, please don't laugh, this is my first look at a ski slope. Growing up in Florida, you don't get many chances to ski in the snow. I bet this is gorgeous in the winter. I did find out that skiing can be expensive with all the equipment and all. You have to pay to ride the lift up the side of the mountain! Crazy I say. Guess you can't walk though.
