Summer Vacation

(Grand Portage)
Here we are on our summer vacation. The brown building in the middle is our hotel. Right smack on the shore of Lake Superior. Gorgeous place.

Here is Avery on the beach skipping stones. The galoshes are a must since the water is still close to 40 degrees.

Avery is having a fun time in the hotel, especially this comfy chair.

Overlooking the waterfall at Grand Portage. Just to the right is Canada. Yes, we were tempted but with the election coming in a few months I think we can hold out just a little longer. (Especially after the political goings on last night!!!)

The back pack was a great buy. These hikes would not be possible without it. Avery has been having a blast with it too.

This is some guy Erin and Avery met.

Temperance River
One more relaxing night in Grand Marais. Then we're going to finish off the vacation with Grandma in Alexandria. What a wonderful time(despite the cool temps and a little bit of rain).

Great photos. Anj and I were just up there this spring and the pics make me want to go back. We met that same large man with the hat. I guess he must live around there.
