This is the first summer in 25 years that I have not lived in Northern Minnesota. I miss the BEAUTIFUL lakes (plural), loons, lightening bugs, lady slippers, spontaneous outdoor v-ball, random campfires with friends serenaded with deep discussions s'mores and the occasional iphone, the hammock, FISHING, teaching VBS, Ben Franklin Crafts, Crazy Dayz, being near water, Independence Day parade, bagpipers, sunsets on lakes, softball games followed by DQ, picking/selling strawberries, eating fresh strawberry pie (Karen Layman's recipe), sleeping under the stars with friends, mowing with riding lawn mower, Big Falls Rapids and company, Pither's Point, Rainy River, Rainy Lake and Voyager's National Park, canoeing, picking blueberries in the bush, pine trees.... I do NOT miss the swarms of mosquitoes.
MINNESOTA!!! The best place to live
my first fish

summer sunset on Moose Lake
fishing with the bro
Instead of using paddles they invented this way of... heave ho... heave ho... heave ho... and we sort of got behind
lots of water fights, and tipping... and yes I even got tipped with the camera, but it didn't really get wet.
I took this pic at the parade... :)
34 quarts of blueberries. now to go sell them...
