Lyback's Ice Fishing
on famous Mille Lacs Lake

 

 


Fifty Thousand Holes
   
by Phyllis Lyback

Determined to avoid city life, Clark & Phyllis Lyback embark upon many ventures in order to make a living by the lake. From creating Lyback's Ice Fishing to building wooden boats and making maple syrup, the Lyback's may well have drilled over Fifty Thousand Holes.
 


This is their story as seen through the eyes of Phyllis. Written with devotion and detail, Fifty thousand Holes is her tribute to Clark and his memory and reflects her gratitude to God for a lifetime of love.


The temp. was 20 degrees below zero
the day we tramped out this big heart and
posed in its center for Honeywell's paper.


True love for a place (and for a person) is often found in the smallest details. Fifty Thousand Holes is such a story -- an ode of love by a family for its home on Mille Lacs Lake in the northwoods of Minnesota. 

Just a note from Eddy---Phyllis, (my Mom), passed away on December 24th, Christmas Eve, this past year. she was 88 years old.  We still have about 1000 books left from the last printing.  All sales of them will be donated to Faith Lutheran church, in Isle for the Sunday School program for her great granddaughter Isabel Rose. Phyllis was involved in for many years with her church and we felt it would be the appropriate thing to do.   Thank You
