Memorial Weekend



We are to the end of the nice long Memorial Weekend. David and I were lucky to get a 4 day weekend. Sure has been a nice fun filled weekend.


Friday morning we went out fishing with dad. Unfortunately we got skunked. Not one fish made it to the boat. Dad and I both had something but never saw it.


Saturday David and I loaded up our bikes and took them to Hinckley for a day of biking on the Munger Trail. The trail goes all the way from Hinckley to Duluth, which is about 80 some miles. We did about 8 miles Saturday. We went 4 miles out and then the 4 miles back. Next time we hope to make it to Sandstone which would be about a 16 mile round trip. It was a nice day for it. We both have sun burns to prove it. The wind was our only obsticle.
This is a catepillar that David saved. He was saving them as we went. Didn't want to see the poor little guys squished by bikes. I think he saved 3 all together. Now they can turn into pretty butterflies!!

The rest of the weekend we have been doing some shore fishing. Not nearly as fun as being in the boat. But luckily for me, I broke my losing streak. Finally...the first time in over a year, I caught a fish. It was a little sunfish....nothing fancy. But hey, I'm one up on last year.


Hope everyone had a fabulous and safe weekend!!
