    A few trip Photos

    We got back from our trip to Grand Marais nearly a week ago but I have been so busy with other things I havent gotten to posting some photos. These are the very few I took on my phone. I have probably 1000 more on my new camera that I need to edit, and I will post those later. I thought you all might want a little snap shot of our trip.

    One anecdote to share: We slept in the tent, and it got to the upper 30F range overnight. Bacon gets to sleep in between Jake and I when we camp he gets his own pad and blankets, and we sleep in mummy sleeping bags. Most nights we woke up to him snuggling on top of our pillows (lovely for him, not so comfy for us), but one night I woke up to a very cold nose inside my sleeping bag. Apparently throughout the night I had slid down in my sleeping bag, leaving the top open (I am very short, so this is not surprising). Bacon took it upon himself to dive into my sleeping bag, head first to stay warm. What a goof!

    Some fall colors


    First sunrise over camp



    Bacon was so concentrated on the other dog on the beach we were able to stack rocks on his head, he barely noticed



    Bacon and his Daddy snuggling (my FAVORITE pic of them ever!



    Bacon roasting some marshmallows (Note: I did all the roasting, and he was very far from the fire, the angle of the photo is quite deceiving)



    The fruits of our labor, 2 grouse from our hunt!



    Jake Bacon and I went hiking in Grand Portage State Park, so beautiful. Me with my boy while Jake was climbing on the rocks to see the rapids up close.

    I'm sure when you got Bacon, this is exactly what you had in mind for your life with him!! Bacon is a very special boy, and he's very lucky to have landed with you two!!!

    Yay! I've been looking forward to your pics! Glad bacon had a good time - sounds like he needs his own sleeping bag!
