We hit the road by 8am for a 2 1/2 hour drive north to Minnesota’s Lake Shetek to Ben and Sara’s cabin on the lake to celebrate their son Beckett’s 9th birthday! The day included cousin Tom’s smoked baby back ribs and a nice pontoon boat ride around the lake…it was a hot day reaching 97 degrees! Good day to be on the water…my favorite place, but today under cover! So good to spend time with Ben and Sara’s family and meet Ben’s parents and sister and family!
Hats off to Tom and Joni for sleeping in the tent tonight with 3 grands! And at 8:45 tonight it’s 83 degrees! I hope they sleep!
Labor Day Sept 4 - Wind is up this morning which makes 86 degrees at 11am very pleasant! But just as at the canal, when the wind is up, the boating is down. But the wind being up has other blessings! The biting flies are down as well as the mosquitoes! I’m reminded to “count my blessings, name them one by one!”
