We've been having gorgeous weather here for the past few weeks and are
not taking it for granted. Even though we've been really tired and not
feeling at the top of our game, that hasn't stopped us from getting out
and enjoying a Minnesota summer. After all, we've earned these good
days- why else would anyone deal with the bitter cold all winter long if
there was no summer?
And now we are cashing in and hitting up the beach, going canoeing and
fishing, playing tennis in the park, walking to the zoo, using the slip
and slide, enjoying popsicles and novels on the front stoop. We even
went for a bike ride on the Gateway Trail. It is a state trail and I
somewhat joked that I was surprised it wasn't barricaded since the
government has shut down almost everything else fun in the state this
month; It was open, busy, and Little Man was able to bike 10 miles! What a
guy! Then we stopped for ice cream and grilled out in the backyard.
What I am not doing this summer is taking pictures very often. I am
also not using the computer as much...it is a good change. Being
outside and actually doing something is way better than reading about it
or talking about it online. So with that, I'm off to finish my coffee
and get Little Man ready for swimming. I hope you are all having a
wonderful week and making the most out of your summer!
