Status check

Last week was our final busy-time in the Minneapolis area (final motorhome maintenance, shopping, doctors, family and friends, etc).  We were able to spend time with Brett, Jen and kids, Dave and LeJoy, our grand-niece Leah, Pam and Ron, and Aunt Lu and her family. Paige’s Mom came with us and we kept her busy!  We got back to the northwoods before the peak holiday weekend traffic and had time for a quiet Friday night fish-fry at a nearby town on the Iron Range.  We also got to the local “happy hour” here on the Whiteface Point for a last get-together with our summer neighbors before we hit the road again in a few days. 

David and Valentina came Friday night and returned to Minneapolis on Sunday morning.  She was driving on her learners’ permit as they left.  Grandkids grow up so quickly!  Grandma Joyce came up for the day on Saturday so we got a 4 generation picture thanks to Bob!
 

For a holiday weekend, there is not much activity around here, but the weather might be the cause of that.  The heat of August ended rather suddenly, to the point where we are wearing long pants and sleeves once again as it is only 60 today. 

We’ll be enjoying a few more days here and in Duluth before we head to Montana later this week.  It’s been a great summer!  We promise to publish blogs in a more timely manner now as we will have more to communicate during our travels.
