No April Fool's Joke!

No April Fool's Joke!
Annabelle East hasn't had much of a break this month. Oops, that's not funny. Energetic walking on the Killarney treadmill (literally and figuratively), can lead to a broken thumb, surgery and a full cast for six weeks.

Hoping to find her way out of da place, Annabelle tries her hand at hitchhiking. No luck so far, so she's busy preparing for her 45th summer at Killarney Mountain Lodge. Good luck with the healing process, Annabelle!

First Guests Check-in to the Pilot House
If you look closely, you can see the first visitors to Killarney, making their way up the shoreline to the Pilot House on the morning of April Fool's Day. No joke, these Canada Geese found dry land just after the ice melted away from the Killarney Channel.

As the staff at Killarney Mountain Lodge & Outfitters start to open up the doors for the summer season, the ice is melting, the sun shone brightly this weekend and the seagulls are squawking in the first days of spring.

It won't be long before opening day on May 5th. Michelle and Bonnie are taking calls in the Reservation Office, booking holidays, canoe and kayak daytrips and sailing cruises aboard Stormy Night.
