Ted, Aspen, Maverick, and Ted's Mom and I took a vacation up north to Minnesota for six days. The goal: to relax, fish, eat, watch the leaves change, and enjoy each others company. Well, we did most of everything on our list, but the only downside was the weather. While our trip happened to be in late September, prime time for leaves changing and cool mornings and nice afternoons, we had freezing mornings with freezing afternoons. The sun only made it out a total of two hours, snowflakes made an appearance not once, but twice, and poor Aspen was cooped up inside all but one day. Even though the weather was crummy, it didn't stop us from having a great time together. We caught about 20 fish between the three of us, watched numerous times a bald eagle in flight, listened to the loons, played the game of "Life" (Britt won both times), read a book, visited with a college roommate on three different evenings, and ate great thanks to my mother-in-law. We have already talked about booking the cabin again next year, but a few weeks earlier. Gorgeous scenery and area and a vacation we will talk about for years to come!
