two harbors

Matt and I are on our way to Two Harbors, Minnesota (on the shore of Lake Superior and one of the 'gateways' to the Superior National Forest).  Julianna, Lydia and Isaac are at Grandma and Grandpa's :) 

We're pretty excited about some time just the two of us and a little hiking in the National Forest.  This is the kind of thing we used to do all the time, and children tend to put a damper on trips like this.  But a few more years and they'll (hopefully) be hiking with us.  In the meantime, it's fun to get away by ourselves. 

Matt read up a bit on some of the trails in the area, and picked out a few for us to try.  Knowing my husband, I am sure it's pretty ambitious, so I plan on having some sore leg muscles in a few days!  We decided not to backpack (too hard to round up our gear, which is in storage in at least two different states) so at least we won't be carrying a lot of weight. 

Anyways, photos and more when we get back....

I know you're needing some down time - just the two of you. Hope you have a great trip - look forward to seeing the photos!
