I said before how we loved to camp at Clear Lake and see so many friends. Today we reconnected with Mike and Narelle O'Brien. Mike, Doreen and I all graduated from Northern University High School together back in 1973. Mike was a multi-sport high school athlete who went on to play professional basketball in Australia where he met his beautiful wife Narelle. They settled in Clear Lake where Mike owns and manages O'Brien Green Technologies and Narelle owns and manages Amaroo Spa, and they raised a beautiful family here.
Today they stopped out to see our new Alliance fifth wheel and then they invited us back to their house for dinner.
Doreen, Narelle and Mike.
Mike working on some great margaritas in Mike's Lounge!
Two beauties, Narelle and Doreen!
Narelle's business, "Amaroo Spa" Amaroo is an aboriginal word. meaning "Pretty Place",
and it is indeed a pretty place.
Mike and Narelle have been working hard remodeling the upper floor of their building for their living space and it is absolutely beautiful. They have completely remodeled it and welcomed us to their home. After cocktails Narelle prepared a great dinner and we reminisced about our classmates and our hyjinx at Cedar Falls! What a time we had!
A view through part of the living room into the kitchen area.

We returned to the campground and enjoyed a nice sunset over the lake!
Tomorrow we will wrap things up and prepare for departure on Monday morning when we will travel into Minnesota and our next stop, Sauk Centre MN.
