Ely, MN bound!

On Saturday the 21st after the Parade of Nations, we noted lotsa packing going on and then the dog truck was being loaded. Could we really be heading up to Ely, MN!?
Yes we will stay close by and remain ready to get in.
You won't leave us!

We stopped in Ashland to get a motel and found a
fellow there from Gay, MI.  That's very near us!

This is the motel owner who was very friendly.

After leaving Ashland, we went for a short hike on the
North Country Trail near Iron River.
We really need to get out and run fast.










We stop for snacks.
Lotsa pretty mushrooms to be found this time of year.

We made it to Gramma and Grampa's! Neighbor mutt Holly was out.
Oh ya, I get her to tussle.

I don't mind getting pinned. I'll chase her later!

Older mutts are content with some good ear scratching.

Ya Danny that's what I like.

Holly! Let's tussle some more.

They had soup n grilled cheese for supper and
Grampa saved some just for us.

Ya we love cheese!

The next day, we went to Hidden Valley for a romp.
We checked out the new mountain bike skills trail.

We spied a pileated up in this dead popple.

Later, we got Gramma and Grampa out to bask in the warm sun.

We recommend it!

This was at Fall Lake, where we had a picnic with the
whole Vesel gang this summer.

We seen a friendly Norwegian out swimming, so I joined him.

Grampa! Got something for me?

Oh, just some Anniversary gifts. What, no chew bones?
