A Superior Trip

Oh how we love the North Shore! A couple of years ago, Nick and I had gone on a trip to the northern shores of Lake Superior and just loved it. This year, we decided to take the kids along for a mini family vacay. We rented a log cabin that perched directly over the rocky shore of Superior. Our views stretched to the horizon and we spent WONDERFUL days with the kids just hiking around the trails and exploring. We saw waterfalls and little critters, climbed over rocks and tossed pebbles into the lake. We made huge family breakfasts in the log cabin, grilled out for dinner, and gazed at the velvet blanket of sky at night with no light to be found anywhere except for the MILLIONS of starts - complete with shooting ones. It was an absolutely fantastic trip with memories I will treasure forever. We had so much fun that we stayed an unplanned extra night - we did not want to leave! And Liam still regularly asks for "the wood house".
