🐱🪵 Weekly Yard Cat Sighting 🐾

As summer settles in, Millie and Milo have discovered that life outside is a lot more exciting than clocking in at the lumberyard. ☀️🌿

That means our weekly yard cat sightings might become a little less frequent over the next few months. When the weather is nice, they'd much rather spend their days lounging in the grass, patrolling the yard at home, and enjoying their newfound freedom.

On the rare occasions they do come to work, you'll usually find them safely indoors. With all the trucks, equipment, and activity around the yard, it's simply too busy and dangerous for them to be outside here.

And before anyone worries—they haven't gone completely off the grid! 🐾📍

Those stylish collars they're wearing are GPS trackers, so we can keep an eye on their adventures and make sure they're staying safe, whether they're helping in the office or supervising from home.

We'll keep sharing sightings whenever they decide to grace us with their presence. After all, yard cats work on their own schedule. 😸

Must’ve been a “matching shirts” kind of day 🇺🇸😆

At Lakeside Lumber, being Family Run ♥ Community Driven isn’t just something we print on a shirt — it’s how we do business every day.

Thirteen years ago this past week, we lost Rich.

We also reached a moment that changed the future of this lumberyard forever.

When asked what he wanted to happen to the store, Rich's answer was simple and clear: "I want Mike to keep this place going."

Looking back, it seems like the path was always there, even if we didn't realize it at the time. Mike grew up around the lumberyard and, after college, joined the business and spent 11 years working alongside Rich. When Rich passed away, taking over the store wasn't a sudden decision—it was the natural next step in carrying on the work, relationships, and values his dad had built.

For the last 13 years, Mike has carried on his dad's legacy, and what we've been able to accomplish together has been more than we ever imagined. The growth of the business, the relationships we've built, and the opportunities we've had are all because of the incredible support of this community.

You stood behind Rich from 1980 until 2013, and you've stood behind us ever since. For that, we are deeply grateful.

Today, you'll find Mike and Heather here every day helping customers, and Levi out on the road driving the semi. And when we reflect on how we got here, we're reminded that this story spans four generations of family. June spent many years keeping the books, Rich built and grew the business, Mike carried it forward, and now Levi is helping write the next chapter. What started as a family business has become a family legacy, made possible by the support of this incredible community.

We miss Rich every day. But looking around at what this place has become, we think it's safe to say Grandpa Rich would be proud.

Thank you for helping us keep this place going. ❤️

— Mike, Heather, Levi, Evan & the Lakeside Lumber family

Seeing all this 90° weather has us dreaming about lake days ☀️🌊

While you’ll see a lot of Milwaukee red in our store, we do carry other great brands too — like this handy DeWalt battery-operated pressure washer!

If your pontoon or boat is looking a little rough after sitting all winter, this thing works awesome. Just bring it to the lake, drop the hose into the water, and clean your pontoon right up — no garden hose or cords required.

It’s also great for washing windows, siding, campers, decks, and more. Just place the hose into a 5-gallon bucket and you’re ready to go.

✔️ Lightweight
✔️ Portable
✔️ Battery operated
✔️ Super easy to use

Stop in and see us today — we can hook you up with one and get you ready for the lake! 🚤

There’s something really special about shopping local. When you support small businesses like ours, you’re not just making a purchase — you’re helping families, supporting local jobs, and giving back to the community we all call home. ❤️

Because of your support, we’re able to support others, too — from local events and organizations to fellow small businesses right here on Main Street.

We are so excited to welcome this new business to our downtown community! We truly believe that when local businesses support each other, our whole community grows stronger. Be sure to stop in, say hello, and show them some love! 🛍️✨

Thank you for continuing to shop local and support small businesses. It means more than you know! Gather & Give

Anybody else struggling to remember how to work after the long weekend? 😅
Millie showed up, laid down, and decided today definitely feels like a Monday… even if it’s technically Tuesday. 🐾😂

We can’t promise she’ll be much help loading lumber today, but morale support? 10/10.
