It’s that time of year again when fall colors begin to show on the trees, Friday nights are spent under the lights watching football, and the boating season on Lake Minnetonka and Wayzata Bay comes to an end. Elisha and I enjoyed leasing a slip for our Sea Ray on Libbs Lake and boating to Big Island and Maynard’s for burgers and drinks. We had a wonderful time this summer, but pulled our Amberjack out of the Gray’s Bay boat landing last Saturday in the pouring rain. If you still have your boat in the water, enjoy these last couple of days this week and get ready for frost advisories and cool breezes. Chalk up another year on Minnetonka for me, as we have had trouble getting out with all the happenings. Too bad summer doesn’t last 9 months out of the year hear in Wayzata, MN. Before we know it it will be time for the Chilly Open. -
Lexus and I took a dip in the cool waters of Wayzata Bay on Saturday. Most of the other boaters we saw did not venture into the water because the recent storms that hit Wayzata stirred up the cold water. Stay tuned to Wayzata.com for the most recent conditions of Lake Minnetonka all summer long.This photo shows me fending her off toe nails as she dog paddles towards me.

This Carver Cruiser pulled out of the Wayzata Boat Works on Saturday and made it’s way across Wayzata Bay. The captain waived to Elisha as she snapped this great shot! -

Elisha and I spent another wonderful day walking Lake Street in Wayzata this afternoon. The sun was out, the temperature was 68 degrees, couples young and old, canine companions were just a few of the sights and sounds. One very different thing over last week was the large handful of sailboats, cruisers, runabouts and classic boats that were zipping across Wayzata Bay / Lake Minnetonka. -
Explore Minnesota is reporting anglers are catching crappies with some success on Wayzata Bay in the shallows. I have seen that first hand as fisherman have pulled pan fish in the Lagoon at Shaver Park, off the docks at the Boatworks, and in front of Sunsets. -
Elisha and I spent a couple of hours walking around downtown Wayzata today. It was 69 degrees and wonderfully warm after what seems like the longest exit from winter in recent memory. There were tons of people out walking and enjoying the warm sunshine and the views of Lake Minnetonka and Wayzata Bay.While we were there, we observed couples out walking, young children playing on swingsets, plenty of canine companions, and someone out in a boat running through the remains of the ice in front of the Boatworks building! We could here the ice crunching against the hull of the fiberglass boat. That cannot be good for the boat!!!
People are so excited to get on Lake Minnetonka that they can’t resist boating even when there is still ice on the water! I can relate, as we went and examined our Sea Ray in storage today and starting to plan getting it ready for the summer.For a more detailed pictoral or slideshow of our day you can visit the following links: View Album Play slideshow.
