Connie & Michael's Ponderosa Paradise at Stoneman Lake

Michael & Connie savoring the sweet success of a Job Well Done at their Cabin in Ponderosa Paradise.

What a wonderful weekend at Stoneman Lake with Dear Friends Connie & Michael.  They built their cabin twenty years ago.  It's the finest workmanship we've ever seen.  Now they get the pure enjoyment of their Place in Ponderosa Paradise.  We so appreciated being able to spend Saturday night with them.  The quote below is from Martha Summerhayes and was written in 1908 but reflects what she thought and saw when she viewed Stoneman Lake in 1874.  Scroll farther and click to view an album of 80+ photos we took this weekend.  (Captions coming soon.)  Below the album screen clip and link are a couple of references about Stoneman Lake.  THANKS, Connie & Michael!
