Remember back in school when you would start the new year and the teacher would have you write what you did with your summer?  Just me?  Well… we did that here in Minnesota.  As I sit here this morning annoyingly coffee free (I forgot to pick some up at the store yesterday),I thought it would be fun as I was mostly absent, to share in pictures what I was doing this summer. 

So… here we go:

I spent several weekends on the North Shore at our cabin with friends biking, hiking,watching movies, playing board games and just hanging out together.

On The Fourth of July we son and I along with a couple of his friends learned that one of our restaurants in town used to be considered “haunted”. The lady working there let us go down underneath he restaurant into old tunnels where the “supposed” paranormal activity was once taking place.

  2. No wonder you weren’t here, on the blog! lol

    I love those photos…I’m laughing at the Big Girl Panties…and your archery reminds me of college, when I took an archery class for one of the P.E. requirements. Fun!

    Thanks for sharing…your teacher would be impressed.

  4. Looks like an action-packed summer! My summer was pretty busy, too. I think I need to do a post like this and unleash my summer’s worth of bad iphone pictures on the unsuspecting world! 🙂
