camping trip 2010

---

We got into the campground near the twin cities, Minneapolis, St. Paul, on the 7th of July. We spent three days there visiting with Sharyn"s family. We went to dinner with Ted, her brother, the second night. The Next day we joined her twin, Shirley, youngest sister Patti, at brother Jim"s Home. Brothers Barry and Dave also were there. Barry is a twin to the oldest sister, Barb, who could not attend. Various spouces were also there. During the day on the eighth while doingm a little maintenance on the camper, I hit my head and required 6 stiches to fix. Except for the embarassment, all is well now.

We left the cities for Peqote Lakes, MN. We always rent a cabin on a nice fishing lake where my family went for vacations, starting when I was only about nine years old. There are a lot of old memories of years gone by up here. We had visits from relatives, and got together with two couples that are in our motocycle group in Florida. They live in the area. My youngest son drove up for a couple of days. we caught some good fish which he took back to Chicago for fish fry with some of his friends.

Leaving here tomorrow for the New england States. We hope to eat lots of lobster and clam chowder while there.
