One of our traditional vacations included going to Big
Bear with Grandma and Grandpa Hardy. They owned two timeshare units at Logonita
Lodge and loved to get as many of us together as possible to enjoy some quality
family time. One of grandpa’s favorite things was to rent a pontoon boat and
get some Kentucky friend chicken and eat out on the lake. The grandkids all
loved fishing from the pier, swimming in the lodge pool and playing pool in the
community lodge. In May of 1993 we were able to get all of the Valko family,
Megan, James’s family and us with Grandma and Grandpa. It was quite a family
reunion and happy memories for all.
