If you’re ever looking for the perfect place to stay while in the Bemidji, Minnesota area, be sure to keep RUTTGER’S BIRCHMONT LODGE at the top of your list! My Mermaid and I had the opportunity to sleep 🛌, eat 🍽️ and film 🎬🎥 there during our most recent visit, while doing a story with the “Minnesota Bound” TV Show. As you drive onto the property, you are welcomed by VERY well-maintained lawn and landscaping. The trees 🌳 and flowers 🌹🌷🌺 were BEAUTIFUL and everything was CLEAN! As you enter the main lodge, you just may be greeted by one of their two furry friends OR you may see them just relaxing on the floor. 😴 We heard that they even like to use the paddle board! 😎🌊💦 Right where you check in at the front desk (with the kind ladies), you can buy clothing and other nice Ruttger’s merchandise. Christie B bought herself a comfy yellow sweater! 😁👍 There’s a large, comfortable lounge and gaming area there too for you to enjoy. They have a great restaurant on the East side of that and a relaxing bar on the West side. If you walk up the stairs a level, you can relax on their rooftop bar and even order food! It was a popular hangout spot on those hot days we were there. 😎🍹🍻 Our room (200) was MORE than what we expected and it even had a private entry, along with a normal hall entry. Everything was CLEAN and it had everything we needed to relax, clean up and get some much-needed rest! 😴🛌 YES… we DO sleep!! 🤣 Karrie (the owner) made sure our stay was the BEST and made us feel like family. I don’t know how many miles she walks a day, but she was EVERYWHERE, making sure everyone was enjoying their stay! Now that’s dedication! If you love swimming 🏊, they have plenty of activities at their beach for you and your family to enjoy. They have water obstacles, docks and even other activities to do. Just visit the beach house and someone will assist you! I will warn you in advance though… you will see HUGE leeches swimming in Lake Bemidji and chilling on the bottom, BUT(!) they are harmless and they’re really fun to catch (and maybe even throw on your loved one 🤭). For real though… they’re MINNESOTA NICE! 😁❤️👍 Make sure you check out their social media pages and even visit their website for accommodations and more information. We HIGHLY recommend staying at RUTTGER’S BIRCHMONT LODGE and hope you tell them that the two dirty divers sent ya! 🤿❤️🧜‍♀️🫧 SPONSORED POST FOR: RUTTGER’S BIRCHMONT LODGE

Sure looks like a muskrat! 🤣👍 Check out our cleanup adventure in Trout Creek, in Peshtigo last month. My Mermaid wasn’t too thrilled about a muskrat swimming near us, but we survived! 🤣 We also learned a very valuable lesson about digging through weeds… 😬🫣 🤿❤️🧜‍♀️🫧🗑️♻️🦫

Check out what we cleaned out of the water in Bemidji, MINNESOTA today! We dived the Mississippi River from Lake Bemidji down to Lake Irving (and back). The thick layer of zebra mussels and massive amount of weeds prevented us from finding too much, but we still found plenty and saw a LOT of fish! Was an honor to film with Troy and Hannah from Minnesota Bound today! We look forward to seeing our story on TV someday and are blessed to be able to film here in Bemidji! 🤿❤️🧜‍♀️🫧🗑️♻️

Last night, my Mermaid and I met up with our filming crew (Troy & Hannah from Minnesota Bound) to enjoy a fantastic meal at Ruttger’s Birchmont Lodge in Bemidji, MN. It was an 8 1/2 hour drive to get here from Marinette, so we were hungry! 😃👍❤️ Our waitress was Emma and she did a fantastic job serving us! The owner, Karrie, even stopped over to chat with us and thank us for our cleanups! 🌎🗑️♻️ We started out with cheese curds with ranch dipping sauce, of course. 😁 I ordered the Spicy Cajun Shrimp 🍤(with a salad), Christie B ordered the Mahi Mahi 🐠, Hannah ordered the Chicken 🐓 Caesar Wrap and Troy had the Red Lake Walleye 🐟. We enjoyed hearing all the other customers laughing and enjoying their meals! It was super hot 🥵 out, so it felt very good to enjoy the nice, cool seating area, while also enjoying the view of Lake Bemidji. The food was fantastic and our meeting was a success! Ya gotta come check this place out! 🤿❤️🧜‍♀️🫧

@EdtheDiver1 I guess a snapper’s a fish with big teeth?? Beavers went extinct in the UK, but were reintroduced to try and improve our failing waterways. We current have around 2,500 and they seem to be doing a good job!! Pity they don’t collect litter though ☺️

@EdtheDiver1 Just relived a great childhood memory there Ed. I loved the cartoon series “Deputy Dawg”who was plagued by the varmint Muskie Muskrat and his cohorts Ty Coon and Vincent Van Gopher!! Didn’t realise Muskrats were the creek versions of great white shark 😆 Don’t scare yr mermaid!

For those of you who love floating down rivers on tubes, here is a reminder to ALWAYS wear shoes, in order to keep your feet safe! As you can see, some folks lost their shoes, but they tried! 😂👍 On this day, my Mermaid, my cousin Ben, his two Sons (Sam & Owen), and my cousin Charity’s Son (Dawson) all had a really fun time cleaning up the Oconto River, flowing out of Chute Pond, in Mountain, WI. We are glad that we made it safer for people to enjoy and that we saw plenty of big fish while doing it! Please help keep it clean by taking everything out that you brought in. Also, do NOT bring glass bottles on your float trip! The iPhone was returned to the rightful owner (that video to come later) and it was very wonderful spending time with my loved ones and free diving for litter and treasures! 🤿❤️🧜‍♀️🫧🗑️♻️

@Bigsean300o_ We use water and muriatic acid, and then scrub brushes and a magic eraser.

A purse in the Yahara River… from 1978! 😳 In June, my Mermaid and I cleaned up the Yahara River (in Madison) 2 days in a row. This was the first day we dived and the second day video has already been posted. We were waiting for the Madison Police Department to call us back about the purse, but they never did… 🧐 We left the purse at our favorite dive shop in Madison, just in case they would want to investigate it further. 👍 It could quite possibly help solve a case! 🕵️‍♂️ We found many other items, but really loved finding the antique bottles, teapot and BATMAN! 😂 We cannot wait to come back and clean more! 🤿❤️🧜‍♀️🫧🗑️♻️

TWO Chevrolet hubcaps, a lot of bottles & broken glass, a Packer sandal, lures, a newer transom saver, an anchor and MUCH MORE! Who ever knew that’d all be underwater in Random Lake, WI?! 🤔😳 We enjoyed visiting our friends over at BDS Fastener & Supply and wanted to do a cleanup for the community that enjoys using Random Lake. We only covered a small area, but we like to think it made somewhat of a difference! 🤿❤️🧜‍♀️🫧🗑️♻️ SPONSORED VIDEO segment for: BDS FASTENER & SUPPLY LLC

@EdtheDiver1 Yesterday I dug an old Kerr mason jar out of an embankment. Valued at $10-$50, who knew. Still looks brand new after I cleaned it up. I think I’m going to drink my coffee out of it.
