Memorial Weekend






Good morning! My husband, daughter and I spent the weekend traversing the North Shore! Our adventures began in Aurora, Minnesota, took us to Duluth to one of our favorite restaurants on Lake Superior, then back to Aurora, for a night’s rest before heading way up the North Shore to Grand Marais, where we camped at Judge C.R. Magney State Park. Sofia spent her very first night in a tent and slept like a log.
The next day, we hiked up to the Devil’s Kettle (a scientific conundrum) and played in the waters of the Brule River. The water was pristine and of course my daring husband couldn’t resist jumping off the side of a cliff into the current of the river. Hooray, he made it back to shore!
In other uplifting news, I came home to a very exciting message in my inbox! My “hello lovely” cards were featured on the front page of Etsy! I could not have been more shocked or excited to come home to such great news!

First of all, your second picture looks like a post card. Beautiful! Second, I cannot believe Galen jumped into the water like that. And last but not least, congratulations on Etsy. That is so cool.
