{%image_id=7204%}The Lodge is all buttoned up for the winter, but there is a ton of work going on behind the scenes. Always maintenance to do at the Lodge, with all of the river rooms getting a bathroom update, solving some plumbing issues and general maintenance. There is some springtime roof repairs planned as well. Work on the dock continues with the airplane floating dock being rebuilt, and also a new airplane storage dock which will allow the plane to get up on the dock and out of the weather for maintenance. The new plane is totally rebuilt and now in the process of getting a new interior and a fantastic paint job. Pirate Airworks will fly in 2010! {%image_id=12746%} {%image_id=12745%} Guide staff for 2010 is now finalized. All guides from the 2009 season are returning with the exception of one, he has a new baby on the way and can't get a hall pass for the summer, rightfully so, he will be changing diapers instead of catching fish!
