Puppy Love

This morning Rose E said "Chevy's face is always painted on like that" in other words he doesn't have many expressions. Too funny.

This picture was taken at the camp (cabin).

Nothing like the Lake Superior sand at the camp (cottage)!

Love'n summer

On one of the hot, hot days we took our Ranger up to Eagle River, Michigan. Such beautiful territory. Look at this superstar Diva sitting next to her idol, her Daddy!
We stopped at a beach to cool off, these kids loved taking a dip in the water and checking out the rocks.
Then we ate ice cream next to a flowing water fall.
And here's the view from one of the bridges on the way home.

Yesterday we also took a trip up to Copper Harbor.

We admired Jacob's fall for quite some time and the kids loved dipping in their toes.

We also toured the Eagle Harbor Lighthouse, here Walter is on the look out dock.

Walter has really been into sunken ships and underwater creatures so touring these museums on the lighthouse grounds was right up his alley. Of course Rose E enjoyed it too.

Fun Happenings in July

It's been a fun July so far. Jeff's Grandparent's celebrated their 60Th anniversary on the weekend of the fourth, so we had a lot of relatives in town which was nice. Here are the kids in their usual pose on our porch after the parade. Walter and Rose E where counting down the time for months.
This weekend we took a trip to Duluth, Minnesota. Here are a few pictures of the kids at Canal Park, enjoying the scenery of the bridges, ships, and lighthouses.

We also trailered up the ranger and took it for an excursion from Moose Lake to Cass Lake a round trip of 220 miles! Here we are after crossing the Mississippi River. It was a fun adventure. Another bonus of the trip, for the train buffs of this family, was that we stayed in a motel where we where able to watch trains pass by from our room window.
