Family Trip "Up Nort"

I should have my MN Residency card taken away or something. I have not yet in my adult life taken in the beauty (they say it's beautiful anyway) of Duluth or seen the headwaters of the Mississippi at Itaska State Park. So after planning for the past 7 months my cousin Jenny loaned us (Mohr's, Bayer's and us) their cabin in Park Rapids for the long weekend. The weather was a bit cool, but not too cool to eat too much, let the kids swim, have campfires, see the headwaters and other cool Itaska stuff, and fight play with our cousins.  On top of it all we also got to celebrate Chase turning 9!  Cool stuff.
