Terrier Retriever.

Spent last night watching the stars spin around Polaris. Weird to see the dippers again in the sky and Scorpio with Antares just peeking over the horizon (she used to be nearly directly overhead). Today we finished up our maintenance and improvements on the shack and the land and stopped by Twin Lakes for a swim. It was here we discovered baby brother is actually a pretty good water-dog. Not only did he swim for upwards of 5 minutes at a time, he couldn't NOT retrieve the log mom kept throwing into the water.

We stopped by Chanticleer Inn on the way home, fulfilling one of Mom's childhood reveries. Apparently on their short vacations into north country, grandma and grandpa used to stop here for dinner. We enjoyed our Friday Fish Fry of perch and walleye and then hit the road, bound to return home for a busy weekend of (re)packing and cleaning.
