Duluth Easter 2025

By
After missing last year we were back in Duluth for Easter 2025. Friday night means Friday night fish fry at The Shack.

I always get something else when we come here and then look longingly at Brooke, Blake and Daniel's fish fry.  

The kids and I all got burgers.

 
While these jokesters played, Daniel and I went to an improv show at the Zeitgeist, which I failed to take photos of.

The rest of us were not feeling it. Plus somebody had to watch the kiddos.
 
Blake has a foot massager. I thought I would try it out. I did not like it.

Machines: 0
Scottie: 1

Blake made us French Toast for breakfast.

 
Part of our science museum membership includes admission to the Duluth Children's Museum. 

Well, it lets us into hundreds of science museums. We've been to a handful or two this year.

I hadn't been here since Meadow was really little. It was nothing like the old one. Everything was just on one floor. Also my kids might be getting too old for these museums. Or this one seemed more geared towards toddlers. 

We still had fun.

I think the actual Minnesota Children's Museum would still be fun, but we made due.


After Blake did his Easter errands we met up for lunch at Northern Waters Smokehaus.

For years I thought it was just a smoked fish joint. Look what I've been missing out on.  

I wanted to come to Canal Park to pick up a mother's day gift for my mom. A couple summers ago I noticed they had hummingbird feeders at the Lake Superior Art Glass store. 

Afterwards we decided to play bocce in Blake's old neighborhood.

I thought the kids would love this game. Well Meadow played, Theo wouldn't dare try.

He hates competition.  

I needed a couple things for my Easter dessert. We stopped at Kwik Trip where Scott picked up ice cream. The ice cream was then demolished once we got back to Blake's.

I was trying to save money. Should've bought two gallons.  

Me, Blake and the kids dyed Easter eggs with a natural dye kit that I've been hanging onto for years.


So nature like.

Do you know that Brooke's family just leaves these out for weeks after Easter at room temp. Yeah, don't do that.

Good morning, time to find your Easter baskets.


I hope the Easter bunny didn't go down there.

Theo was mad I suggested he go down there. Ha.

The under-stairs closet seems like a better hiding spot.

He was pretty excited to get a Link action figure.

Meadow got some new headphones.

Time for the egg hunt in Blake's leftover Boubville backyard.

Meadow's Easter outfit was so epic.

What a stylish kid.


This year I made some brownies with Easter candy.

Blake's house looking spiffy.

Snacks before dinner in the Lungwitz-family fashion. 

Always good to see Jasper and Blake's other friends.

IDK. Some weird easter YouTube music mixes with questionable illustrations were played in the background.

Time for dinner.

Wish we could stay but we had to drive back to Minneapolis.

Sisters, a Brother and Walking Chicago

By Anonymous
  Summer always seems to mean one thing: weddings. Whether I'm shooting or attending, we're bound to end up at a few every year.  This time around we were heading down to Chicago from my big sister Katrina's nuptials. I feel like all our vacations are centered around a wedding or something wedding related. I wish we could go on a vacation without having to worry about being somewhere.   It also means a few repetitive trips down I-94. There aren't nearly enough unique stops off the interstate. One outlier is Foster Cheese Haus , the only organic Wisconsin cheese shop I know of. Run by the folks behind Castle Rock Organic Farms , we always try to stop by. Unfortunately for us they were closed on Wednesdays, but at least we got to spy on their darling garden out front.    Brooke and I arrived in Necedah. We decided to stop at Brooke's sister Brittany's home along the way to cut the ride in half and get her dressed hemmed.   ...

Dakotas Road Trip: Badlands and Black Hills

By
  I thought we would skip Wall Drug this time since we've seen it before but Scott was gun ho on going.  Come on. You can't go to the Badlands and skip the world's greatest tourist trap. First stop ice cream.  We thought we would have lunch here but after seeing the prices decided we would cook something at the park instead. But first we had to take a couple tourist pics. When we we decided we were coming here I was expecting it to be 90's and hot. Did not think it would be rainy, chilly and foggy.  I always make Brooke look cool. She on the other hand always finds a way to take a pic at the most awkward possible moment. Either that or I'm just really awkward. Earlier this year, I asked Theo where he wanted to go on vacations this year. He said he wanted to backpack camp at the Badlands because he was sad he didn't get to go yet. This is all for you buddy.

Chicago Chrismukkah + Michigander Xmas

By
 Before heading out on our trip we let the kids open their Christmas gifts from us. A knitted sweater for Theo and a kitty dress for Meadow (I fixed the straps for her) both made by me. I wanna a sweater. Scott got them new compact sleeping bags. We all got smaller sleeping bags this year and we'll now have a lot more room in our car. This year we had talked about hosting my family at the cottage. Then meeting up in Milwaukee, then meeting in Chicago. But in the end we made stops in Chicago and Lowell this Christmas. We left on a Sunday which was nice to have a few days to prepare. On the way down to Chicago we stopped at our favorite roadside restaurant, Foster Cheese Haus. We had plans to break up our drives so we didn't have to rush like we normally do. We had made it just before the cheese haus was set to close for the winter. Just not enough folks stop here in winter and snowmobile season is becoming shorter and shorter this far so...
