A Message from Carl Mapley

Hello family & friends,

For those of you whom I have not had the time to contact due to focusing on Faye's care, Faye had an aortic dissection(ascending), which translated to a heart surgery on Friday, 2/11/2011. Faye was in surgery for seven hours, and it was touch & go during that time whether or not she would come through the brutally invasive surgery. Fortunately God did not need her as bad as I do, so she was spared, survived, bruised, and in intensive care. We were in the right place at the right time as EMS brought her to Naples Community Hospital in Naples, Florida which is a heart hospital, rated in the top 5 in the nation. At the present time Faye is doing well and is going to be transferred in-house to a cardiac rehab unit for 7-10 days. For those of you whom I did have time to contact, Faye & I thank you for your prayers and continued support. For those of you for whom this is the first acknowledgement God was very kind to us and prayers were answered as Faye continues to recover. I will try very hard to update as time permits.

Warm personal regards,

Carl Mapley (Lot 19)

You will be amazed !!!!!

Tammy Reason has posted pictures of the "Snow of 2011" on her facebook site. If you use facebook she will be happy to share the "wonders and wildness of winter at the park". Tammy, your shovel must be worn down to the handle. Thank you for your messages, muscle and magnificent pictures.

February 4, 2011

Tammy and Mark reported lots of new information for us in the last few days. The "Snowstorm Apocalypse, 2011" really hit Michigan and certainly came into AHCC like a bear. The good news is that Tammy reports that she has not seen any damages to our units. However she reports, "...we have lots of snow which has been drifted by 45to 50 mph winds. The roads are completely covered and the many roads and units have drifts up to 10ft. and are approacable only if you bring a snow shovel to cut a path to the door. This is the 11th big snow we have gotten. (Co-owners) will not be able to park by their units. The snow has piled up and nowhere to put it to avoid driveways." Let's hope that we all tied down our toys, bikes, boats and grills so that we don't find them in the neighbors yard this spring! Pictures to follow. If you are traveling up to Oscoda please remember to bring high boots and a big shovel. ♥

Yes...It is COLD

December 13, 2011 Twelve degrees, High Winds with Gusting Drifts up to 4' and a Wind Chill of Minus 21 forcast for overnight. Thanks for the update Tammy and Mark. Bundle up and snuggle!

Miss Tammy, our winter security person with Mr. Mark is "on duty". She even cheerfully walked over to the beach so that I could get her on "Beach Cam", and it was 18 degrees!! Tammy reports that there is no snow now but ice is beginning to build up on the shoreline. She and faithful Abby will keep us posted throughout the winter so that we can check out the pending snowfall. Do you think we will be able to get her back down there in January to climb up on the ice?

SEASON WRAP-UP 2010

The Campground Water and Sewer will be shut-off on Friday, October 29, 2010. Please be sure to replace the battery in your Smoke Detector and secure lawn furniture, lawn ornaments and items that may blow away in the powerful winds. The front restrooms will be available for co-owners wishing to visit throughout the winter. See you in the Spring!! ♥

So Sorry!

So sorry that I have neglected the blog. Thank you to everyone who sent well wishes and prayers to us and our family. Please get ready for an explosion of information regarding the wonderful people of AHCCA. Mary
