Road Trip Saturday

We took  a quick 10 hour road trip to Duluth and back home again on Saturday. We got up early and were out on the road by 7am to Jay Cook State Park for a hike in the woods.

 

Before the hike, we stuffed ourselves at the Black Bear hotel's buffet. I should have taken a photo of my plate piled high with fruit. I mostly stuck to fruit but did have one of their caramel rolls with nuts and a piece of baked chicken.

 

We took the Silver Creek Trail out into the woods for a five mile walk. We were pretty tired after that icy woods walk with heavy boots.

The only animals we passed by were at the main building next to the bird feeders.

Walking on the swing bridge to get over the river to the other side.

 

 

 

After our hike in the woods, we drove up to Duluth for a look around then drove back home.

 

Everyone was pretty tired so we skipped walking around town.

 

After a two hour nap, one hour on the ride home and another hour after we got home, we all went to the MOA for a little shoe shopping. Everyone but me, came away with new running shoes. ... and that was our Saturday..
