Unfortunately, My Dad never visited our Muskie Fishing Indiana Cabin located in North Webster, Indiana. He passed prior to Wesley and I ever meeting. Yet, we both know that this would have been one of his favorite Indiana Log Cabin Getaways. Dad loved to golf, boat and fish. He would have loved everything about this cabin including the fact that Lake Webster is known for great Muskie fishing and a golf course that is less than 10 minutes away. He loved the outdoors, cooking out, family gatherings, early morning dawns on the lake, crappie fishing and keeping life simple.
We have two boats that we use at our cabin. One is a newer speed boat and the other is a very old pontoon boat that has a definite "Beverly Hillbilly" look to it! Years ago, We christened it with a new name after my dad. He was nicked named "Punk" as a child but was far from that as an adult. He was 6'2 and a big man. A real man's man. In his honor in a fun way.. we renamed the boat "Punk's Party Barge" He would of cared less about how the boat looked but just that it functioned! Maybe a lesson I am still learning:) We have had most all of my family members to our cabin except for a few who live in distant states. They have all agreed and commented on how Dad and (Grandpa) would have loved it here. He would have felt like he had a slice of paradise.
Dad passed away in December of 1994 and even though he never experienced the love of this cabin his spirit is felt here and many of his future generations feel a love and remembrance of him when they gather here. This is a place that he would have loved!
The Christmas Holiday brings up many memories from the past to the current. We keep his memory alive in many ways including a framed pic of him at our cabin with a big catch!
One of my regrets is that he did not get to share this cabin life experience with me and our family. Yet we will continue to keep his memory alive.
