\"Stormy\"

Stormy<\/p><\/div>\n

Welcome to winter? \u00a0We are finally getting some snow. \u00a0Hopefully the trails will be usable this week! The lakes are being traveled on, but please as always check before you go and don’t venture out to explore after dark. \u00a0Both Catchacoma and Mississagua have some large pressure cracks so be careful….they might not make your day.<\/p>\n

It is with great sorrow that we \u00a0share with you the passing of Stormy.\u00a0 He was a front line greeter and first class supervisor for almost 12 years here at LGM. His daily fitness routine involved following Don on the tractor, and staying on Heather, Leah & Shawna’s heels to be sure he never missed a boat ride. One time, he got left behind and decided the best option was to swim after the boat…he was a great co-captain but not the best swimmer on the lakes; he sure had heart though! \u00a0Not much of a car ride guy, these boat rides were Stormy’s version of doggy head out the window, wind in his ears trips. Caution to those at the back of the boat: standing at the bow with his tongue hanging out was sure to result in a likely unwanted shower!
\nGreeting the Purolator truck at 10:00 every morning was a event that could not be missed – who else would provide him with a coffee break treat? And everyone has to gear up for a busy afternoon of greeting people, so we could be sure to find him by Cal’s side at lunch…he knew who brought the best leftovers.
\nHis winter routine was not much different, although snowmobile gear makes getting a good ear rub difficult. \u00a0Storm had it all figured out, often \u00a0stealing the right handed glove off of machines as customers filled up with gas, only returning it after getting a good pat on the head. \u00a0Smart guy.<\/p>\n

Sally says he hit the jackpot landing at Little Gull all those years ago. \u00a0We think it was us who hit the jackpot. \u00a0We know he had numerous friends around the lakes and he will be missed very much. Happy boating buddy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
