Good morning! Stop the rumors! I am still here – just living it up on the last big weekend of summer! I missed the Monday post entirely! 😛
We were at our cabin for the weekend with friends and had a BLAST! We (Al and I) left Thursday afternoon, and pour friends arrived later that night. We spent the weekend at Splitrock lighthouse, toured a brewery (small one), archery at the Temperance State Park, and drove to Soudan MN to tour the Soudan Mines – which are well worth the time if you are ever in the area.
Al and I arrived back home yesterday afternoon and I had a meal to make for a friend, and we had friends come over last night as well to catch up with each other. 😀 It was a fun fun four days.
I have missed blogging and have oodles of reviews to catch up on and hope to get them rolling out this week and starting this afternoon. I cant wait to catch up with all of you as well. Missed you fellow online book lovers! 😀
Here are a few pics of our weekend:
That’s my update. I hope to be around way more often than I have been the last few months.
Did you do anything fun this past Labor Day weekend?
Book Journey 
Duh…the obvious! lol
Yes, you have been MIA lately, but it looks like you’re having fun. I did see you a couple of times on FB, so I knew you were alive…
I saw The Butler yesterday…loved it!
Oh I am so glad a few people found me on facebook 😀
Looks like you had fun. Haven’t you had crazy (hot) weather? Our weekend turned out rather gloomy weather-wise but we still had a fabulous time in Newport RI.
We did have some 90’s last week. Currently 83 and I play ball tonight. *yay* LOL I like heat… winter is too long and dreary for me 😀
The lighthouse photo is GORGEOUS.
Glad to hear you had a fun weekend.
Thanks -it is funny because there are so many pics of that lighthouse that look just like that – seems like everyone likes that same shot 😀
That looks like fun! pretty lighthouse on a pretty location.
Have a great week!
Right on Lake Superior. We have toured it many times as this is my hubbys neck of the woods. 😀
It does sound like a fun weekend! Small breweries are the best! Can you imagine working in that mine day after day after day?
The brewery was fun – the mine… wow. I can not imagine. They told us that in the early years before electricity they worked by candle light – and only one candle at a time as that came out of their wages and they were 2 cents a piece. I can not even imagine – it was said that 3/4 mile to get to where they mined, they walked in the complete darkness as the breeze in the mine would blow out a candle.
Sounds like a great weekend!
It was! It has been a whirlwind summer 😀
Love the awesome split rock lighthouse!!
Sounds like you enjoyed your long weekend 🙂
We did have a great time relaxing and reading and running around the North shore area 😀
Sounds like some fun things going on!
It has been a great summer for new experiences 😀
I add my vote on the lighthouse pic! It looks like a poster shot! Beautiful, and I love lighthouses, too 🙂
Sounds like a wonderful weekend 🙂 I don’t know about that mine, though! I give you credit for going, but I really don’t think anyone could get me down there! Let alone with candles…or COMPLETE DARKNESS! AAAGGGHH!!!
The mine was a cool experience… well cold even. 52 degrees down there 😀
funny…as much as it would terrify me in reality, I became VERY curious and started googling it 🙂 lol
The real world does tend to intervene once in a while! LOL
This is true 😉
