The story of our weekend in lakes:
Nokomis- We ran around this lake twice, all before 9am on Saturday. This was part of a 10K that we did with our friends, Nick and Shannon, and Megan and Hans. We all made it! It was perfect weather and we tried to stay occupied for the hour by telling good stories- I'm pretty sure we were entertaining some around us as well. We decided to reward ourselves with delicious brunch at the Longfellow Grill-yum.
Harriet- Later that day we headed to Lake Harried for a day at the beach. We've had idyllic summer weather all weekend (mid 80's, low humidity, and beautiful clear blue skies)- so we have tried to take advantage of it! I'm pretty sure this was our first time all summer to go to the beach- putting us well below the "average Minnesotan lake-time" for the summer. We tried to at least improve our summer's "grill-to-regular-eating ratio" with a cookout at the Golden-Wilson residence. Both of these measures can be improved upon on our part, so we really need to get on that in August! Our trip to Grand Marais will definitely boost the lake-time, and since it is the biggest lake in the country- time there counts as double.
Snelling- Beach time continued on Sunday at Fort Snelling State Park. Mosby came with us and hung out in the shade while Will and I relaxed, swam, and played some catch. Not too shabby for a weekend in town!
Until next time,
Kirsten
