Take Me To the River

The St. Croix River, that is.

We went camping at the Wild River State Park on Saturday and Sunday night. We even rented a canoe and spent most of Sunday on the water.*

We had a wonderful time! It was so refreshing. The weather was good except for one small downpour on Saturday evening. The quick shower was followed by a beautiful rainbow all across the sky, so I'd say that small hiccup in the weather was totally worth it!

Some other things that made the trip very enjoyable: very few mosquitoes, only one tick (on my husband's leg), and no bee stings. Nice State Park amenities - like clean showers, a fun visitor center, and beautiful hiking trails. Yummy food - blueberry pancakes, s'mores, and pb & j.

Hanging out with our good friends didn't hurt either. It was so great to see them and spend the weekend with them after months apart. I hope we'll do it again. Thank you Bodkes for a great weekend!









*No pics of that, cause I left my camera behind. I was too afraid it would end up at the bottom of the river. I also have very few pictures of Bug, and that's cause she was on my back in the Ergo most of the time.
