Three Lakes

Evelyn took her first trip to Three Lakes to stay at the Rice Family Camp on Lake George.

We went up Thursday afternoon (around 4:00) and realized early on that we need to upgrade if we want to travel. Current plans are looking at a car-top carrier for the Subaru Outback and /or getting a van. But, that is another post.

We stopped off at camp, got Sammy settled and then continued on to L'Anse for a concert by Whitewater. Turn up the sound and copy and paste this link to hear some of their music: http://www.white-water-associates.com/audio/cradle.mp3


After the concert, it was back to camp where Evelyn had a good nights sleep - all things considered. Thanks to the Army Corps of Engineers, Evelyn was able to sleep in her Pack-n-Play and it was a fairly uneventful night.

The next day brought some time on the front porch where we were able to visit with Grandma & Grandpa Rice. They watched Evelyn as Mommy & Daddy went to take a sauna. Good thing Evelyn & Sam were in good hands because a very strong storm came through. The rain was so hard we could not even see across the lake!

A stop for ice cream on the way home had us get in just after dark. Sad that we can tell the days are already getting shorter - it is dark again before 10pm. But, like everything else, we will just enjoy what we have while we have it.
