Happy Halloween

Just took a look at the weather forcast for the next 10 days up in Minnesota. Looks like it'll be in the 30s if we're lucky. Being between two lakes, if it says it's 30, it feels like 20. BRRRRRRRR! Guess I'll just have to pack plenty of warm things. We had so many trick or treaters tonight that we actually ran out of candy. I don't think that's ever happened before. Anyhow , still just looking forward to the trip. I'd hoped to get more comments and ideas on here before leaving, it's still not too late! Love to hear from anyone reading the blog. Right now I'm trying to decide on what all to try and take up with me this trip. I'm just going in a van so space is there but limited. Anyhow, Happy Halloween :)

Getting ready for the next trip up north

Well, I'm starting to get nervous. My 17 year old son doesn't want to go with us on this trip because of hockey and his girlfriend and friends and school . Gotta love teenagers. Anyhow, I'm not sure what to do about either leaving him at home alone or making him stay with my parents but I'm sure that'll all work itself out. As for the trip, I'm not as sure. The piece of furniture I bought is so big that only a rented truck will do to get it up there. I also have beds to move and so on but I'm afraid to take it all up already when there's still so much work to be done. It's going to be chilly , that's for sure. I'm excited as much as anything just to get up and see it again. I'm going to use this week to try and pack up my van and make sure everything's all set. I'll take plenty of pictures and post new ones when I get back :) Oh, and I bought a tonnnnn of candy for the trick or treaters this week , hope we get bunches!
