Rick By Lake Superior

What a weekend! We had so much fun on our biking trip. We had beautiful weather. We left Waseca around 11:30 and went up to St. Paul to meet Eric and Serena at there house. We got the pop up camper all packed up and were on our way. We got to the Moose Lake State park and got everything all set up. After that we went into Moose Lake to get a few things and then came back to camp and made supper and had a campfire.

Sat. we got up got ready to bike . We drove up to Barnam and unloaded the bikes and were off. The trail was great, flat and easy going. We stopped several times along the way to rest and take pictures. By 1:00 we had made it to the outskirts of Duluth were the trail ends. We decided that we did not want to go down the big hill into Duluth because it would really suck to come back up the hill and we still had to go back to Barnam. So we turned around and rode back about 10 mile and found a great place to eat. After eating it was back on the bikes. We had a long way to go! Rick and I pulled ahead of Eric and Serena for part of the way back. They had lights on there bikes and we did not so we wanted to get back before dark. We got back at about dusk, Eric and Serena were about 15 minutes behind us. We had biked 70.2 miles! I could not believe we had gone that far. I have never biked more then 45 miles in a day. I was very proud of all of us we did great!!!! When we got back to camp we all took much needed showers and then Rick cooked us some great burgers and hot dogs. We sat around the campfire and were all off to bed by 11:00.

Sunday we got up and went to a great coffee shop in Moose Lake for some breakfast. After that we went back to camp and got everything packed up. We left the camper and bikes in the parks parking lot and drove to Duluth and Two Harbors. We spent the day going to shops and going to the beaches. It was a nice relaxing day. We heading for home and then got stuck in traffic. That sucked! We got home around 10:30.

It was such a great weekend we all hated for it to end.
