Kathryn's Story
I am married with 3 grown children. Presently living in northern Minnesota on Dixon Lake. I am running a Bed & Breakfast in our new round home, we specialize in X- country skiing. We have over 200 acres of private trails that we maintain for our guests. I am an artist, specializing in wildlife painting, wood burning and stained glass. I create many other things out of mosaics and wood. I also have done a lot of building so construction is no stranger to me. My husband is a jack of all trades but mostly is an excellent carpenter. We both enjoy hunting and I have two full mount bears I shot in my kitchen. I am a gardener and I swim across our lake regulary.
I went west to CO. for a couple of winters to Breckenridge to get in some skiing. I worked on the mountain and had a blast. I was married to my 1st husband in 84 and got sick in 87. I was diagnosed with Leukemia at age 26 while pregnant with my 3rd child. I had a bone marrow transplant and a divorce in the same year. Stayed single and raised my 3 kids Karissa/25, Derek/23, & Kyle/21, by myself for 12 ...Expand for more
years. Derek has a son named Peyton who is almost 2 so yes call me gramma if you must! I lived on the iron range for 7 years after moving from the cities because I was assulted in my own back yard. I could'nt stay in the cities any more. I can barely stand to visit now and don't know how anyone can live there. I met my husband Lyle who owned the resort on Dixon Lake in 98 when I was up at our family cabin. We fell in love and got married lakeside at the resort in 99. We ran the resort, restaurant and bar for 9 years. We completely remodeled all 9 exsisting cabins and the house. Then we built two luxury vacation homes by ourselves and were able to make the business a success. We had 40 campsites, 12 cabins and 40 ice houses we took care of on Big Lk. Winnie. In 2007 we sold the resort, we were able to get our price and walk out happy. We moved across the lake and built a round home and are now just getting finished. We are in the process of opening a B & B in our new home. Our new business is called mylakeome note no H in there, then we just added the .com
