A mix of photography, recipes, personal thoughts, faith, and lots of family stuff, but not necessarily in that order.

Our last day on the north shore.

 This morning we took our time leaving... 
we sat out and read on the deck, and 
hung out by the lake enjoying it's majestic beauty.
Checkout was at 11:00, so off we went.

Gooseberry Falls
We stopped at Gooseberry Falls to check it out and 
 stretch our legs





From Duluth we went off the beaten path to avoid the construction on 35W 
 Here's one of the sites we saw on Co Rd 23.
It's the St. Louis River, the trees in the background we so pretty.
Fun fact: The St. Louis River drains into Lake Superior.

This mornings Sunrise, 
and we didn't even have to get out of bed to see it. 

Now we are home and I'm missing the sweet sound of the waves crashing into the rocks.
Is it too early to start making plans for next year.
