Annual Outings --- Cinco de Julio, Clearwater River Trip & Mistic Berry Farm

Every summer we have our list of things we look forward to doing...we have added outings over the years and some stick and some don't!  We have visited Mistic Berry Farm for years to pick Strawberries and have breakfast.  In 2017 we added Cinco de Julio and a trip down the Clearwater River.  Cinco de Julio is of course the 5th of July and a day of rest!  The river trip has grown and is a fun day with friends.

We left for the river on time!  An amazing feat with this crew!



And we are off...

No trip is complete without Oreos!

Don't forget to reapply!

Duck-Duck-Goose while waiting for breakfast.  Unfortunately the wait was so long we decided to make our own and headed back to the cabin

4th of July 2018!

4th of July is always a great time at the lake.  The day started with a boat parade down the North Shore followed by yard games, root beer floats, Paul's famous Jalapeno poppers, baseball game, S'mores Bar and FIREWORKS!












Lake Shenanigans!

Despite not having power for a few days, our first few days at the lake were good ones!  
Believe it or not, his hair gets curlier when wet!

Matchy-matchy!
