Star Island Canoe Camping on Minnesota's Cass Lake

Scott had a job in Moorhead. You know what that means, road trip!  I had to get a photo of Theo being sweet holding his Baby.  We stayed the night at a Best Western.

Anything to avoid the mundane interstate. We went to the Countryside Cafe in Motley, Minnesota. I didn't know there was a Motley in Minnesota before this. Meadow has become very naughty when going out to eat. She has decided she doesn't want to wait for her food anymore. She usually stays entertained for about 5 minutes, then wants to get out of her chair. Root Beer Floats can never be bad. Brooke ordered her old usual, grilled cheese. I of course went for the open faced meatloaf. What else would one order at a diner? During Easter Blake taught Meadow how to d...
