A Tettegouche Camp Cabin and Roller Garden Brooke Birthday

Saturday It's become a yearly tradition to stay at a cabin for my birthday. Since Saturday night was the only night that worked for us this year, our locations to stay at were slim. We had casually checked places all week. We hoped to stay somewhere with snow, but all those places were far away or booked. We decided to wait to see what was available on Saturday.

Backcountry Camping with Kids in Theodore Roosevelt National Park

Day 1 Back in May I stumbled upon Theodore Roosevelt National Park. I had no idea there was a National Park in North Dakota and that it was the northern end of the Badlands. Usually our summer vacations coincide with Scott's work trips. Since he didn't have any this summer I thought we should take advantage of actually taking a vacation.

Scott wasn't so sure about having lunch here, we had to keep up with our Beaches and Brews theme of the trip. Meadow has turned into such a teenager lately. She's so embarrassed to take photos with me now. Oh, I'm going to miss having little kids. T he Lake Superior waters have been giving Theo all the curls. Next we headed over to Sable Falls. We planned to see the eastern part of Pictured Rocks today since we were staying to the west of the park. I attempted to recreate a photo from 10 years ago. Back on the North Country Trail again.
