For the Fourth of July weekend, we went to Willow River State Park in Hudson WI. We arrived on Thursday and came home on Sunday afternoon. Greg, his girlfriend Liz, BriAnne, Bishop, Carl and I were there the entire time. On Saturday we were joined for the afternoon by Sonny/Emelia/Copper and we finally got to meet Liz's mom, Cheryl. Bishop enjoyed his first ever camping trip. He was very comfortable and behaved perfectly. I did miss Dakota, but know he was with us in spirit.
Activities:
Friday: Went on a hike to the Willow River Falls. They were spectacular. The hike there was about a mile. Carl struggled a little bit, but made it without incident. On the way back, we decided to take the "short cut" (or so we thought) back. The return trip was not only LONGER in distance, it was a very steep climb for a good portion of it. Carl was in a lot of pain afterwards!! We had lunch and then took out the canoe (Greg, Liz, Bre rented one). Did a little bit of fishing.
Saturday: Went to the beach with everyone and had a big steak dinner around 3:00. Our visitors left by 5:00 and since I taught Liz how to play cribbage on Friday, we played a couple of games. We played "I Spy" until dark and then were in bed by 11. Left around noon on Sunday.
NEXT TRIP: August 7-10 at Sherwood Forest Park (Carl's Family Reunion), August 10-14 at William O'Brien and August 14-17 at Wassica State Park (WI). LONG one!!!!
