Back to business.

We had a blast on vacation in northern Minnesota. First time for hubby and lil dude to travel to this part of our wonderful country. I had been near to where we stayed but not in the actual town. This was a so called "family reunion" type of trip. My parents and all of us kids and our families decended on the Bemidji area and stayed in a cabin on the Mississippi river between two lakes. We have friends that live up here and we enjoyed getting together and "catching up" with them after almost 30 years. My hubby and brother in law were not as thrilled going down memory lane as they were not part of the original storyline but they hung in there and appeared to enjoy themselves.

It was fun but now we are back to reality.

We will just have to wait until next year. We are Cubs fans so that is a well known phrase! We have lots of photos for us to enjoy and remember our trip "Up North". Here are a few to show everyone our fun.

This is the cabin.



We plan to go back with a few minor changes. We plan to go to a different resort. All get our own cabins instead of cramming in a small one. Also it was agreed to travel up the way we came home....much faster route.
