After leaving Rice Lake, WI
we drove North (and West)
to Superior, WI and crossed the big bridge
into Duluth, MN.
I drove and MyHero took pictures..
so don't be blaming me if you don't like them.
After crossing into Duluth we took the road that
runs along Lake Superior.
It is beautiful..awesome old houses..
fine waterfront views..
But..
As you head North you come across
We first discovered Glensheen when
my daughter-in-law,
TheSecretAgent, told us about it.
Her family used to vacation in that area
every summer when she was a kid.
We went on a long weekend with her
(and MamasBoy) and took the tour.
FASCINATING!
What is even more fascinating is that
the owner was murdered by a relative..
and the tour guides never mention it.
Now...Wikipedia says that they
can talk about it now...but let me tell you..
they don't.
If you ever get a chance to go..
it is quite an experience.
MyHero said we COULD go on the tour again.
...but...
always with the "buts" buddy...
maybe we should drive a bit
further North and stop on our way back...
Yeah...right...I have heard that one before.
Do I look like I just fell off the turnip cart?
DON'T answer that!
It's the hair, isn't it? The dad-blamed hair
always gives me away!
Northward Bound...
We head towards
Two Harbors, MN.
There is a very cool lighthouse there.
The view is spectacular
But wait...
Here is MyHero's favorite sight~
A sight for sore eyes...
A sight that would make one
dream of the goodness that lies therein.
It is....
Oh Look- There's the sign...
And cleverly hidden behind the sign is this...
Lunch was good but
you only EAT lunch so that you
can have dessert!
After all...they call it Betty's Pies
for a reason.
YessirreeeBob...that is about the
best pie I ever had!
As soon as we finish eating we head North..
Wait-we only go one block because
MyHero thinks he might find some cool rocks.
Huh? Yes! Rocks!
My Trader Joe bag in hand he is off..
(really off...I mean seriously...rocks?)
Off to a big adventure...
Hey, I yell...You look really cute with your purse.
Huh? What? He says as he looks up.
I said, The pickings look a little sparse.
Notice how I cleverly disguised that sentence..
and the fact that he is a deaf in one ear doesn't hurt.
What? He asks again.
Never mind....I am just taking a picture
of the bridge behind you...
A bridge that I hope to soon cross over and
head back to Glensheen....because
if I don't get to see it there may be mayhem involved..
Now...if you don't cover your screen with
white spray paint..
tomorrow I will tell you about our stay
in the Bates Motel...
