July 12th – 20th we stayed at Royal Oaks Campground, close to town and bike paths. Ben and Gwen joined us for the weekend. It was a lot of fun to go sight seeing with them.
Spacious camp sites, a little close to the road but not too noisy.
Ben and Gwen’s first time at karaoke together.
Gwen kept rocking out, like father like daughter. Great job Gwen!
Saturday we rented a pontoon to go fishing on Lake Itaska, to late of a night singing for Gwen.
Is it a feed bag or barf bag? Kid, you are hilarious!
Gwen was fishing with worms and ended up catching a perch with a minnow.
The four of us at the headwaters.
We climbed the fire tower 16 flights to the top, we all made it, it was more of if Gwen’s going so are we. Gorgeous view, a little windy and sway at the top.
Huge white pine tree.
Gwen, Ben, & Paul
Um, Ben does it feel like someone is standing over you?
Bemidji State Park, nice beach area.
