July 9, 2006 - Vacation Begins
Today, the annual trek to the North Woods begins.
We spend our summer vacation at Kawishiwi Lodge, the only resort on a lake in the BWCAW, a federal wilderness area where motorized craft are prohibited. It makes for a peaceful lakeshore and makes swimming out to the middle of the lake more relaxing.
It’s a long trip up there - 520 miles - only a few miles from Canada. We’ve been going to the same place for 9 years and in the area for 12, so the kids are very attached.
