  • HOW I SPENT MY SUMMER VACATION


    This summer my Irish bride and I spent a week at a lake in northern Minnesota with Leanne & Curt, grandkids, Melanie, Jake, and John and Mel's friend Kaylee.  The cabin belongs to Curt's brother so the price was right.
       

    It's a small lake and very clear, and as the pictures show, everyone enjoyed it.
      

    There was the boogie board.
     

    Fishing and just cruising around in the pontoon boat.
      

    Kayaking and swimming
         

    We shared our retreat with a family of woodpeckers (click on the picture for a better look)
        

    There was biking in the woods (that's Jake getting some air on a jump) and Curt and his brother trying to establish sibling superiority at tetherball.
       
     
    There was a good deal of just hanging out ....
          

    Eating well ....
        

    and just enjoying the wonderful time we had together.
