Duck Hunting Opener

Our Family on vacation Gooseberry Falls

Here in Minnesota around the first week in October is the opening of hunting season. This weekend was the opening of duck hunting. Friday morning my husband, our oldest son, his wife, son and grandson took off for the slough. We call it the "slough" but its leased land on a farm near Herman, Mn. The guys have been going up there for about five or six years. Pheasants and deer are hunted there also. I don't mind some wild game to feast on but not all of it. The weekend was quiet for me. I did attend a meeting on Saturday morning but otherwise I stayed close to home. The fall colors are out and the beauty of the season is upon us. Hard to believe that we will soon be shoveling snow. I guess I don't mind the winter so much now that we are able to jump in the motorhome after the holidays and go to warmer climate for a break. We have met some great people in the RV Parks. Look forward to seeing them too.

Have had a busy summer. Took a few short trips with the motorhome. My class reunion was in July which we attended. Part of the family went to Duluth in August to help our granddaughter settle in to her new digs up in Duluth. She is attending UMD this year. That weekend we did take in a few sights. Did the touristy thing.. Gooseberry Falls was a awesome sight. I had never been there before. The younger ones went on the roller coaster ride.

Spent a weekend in Madison, Wisconsin for a cousins daughters wedding. Outdoor ceremony and it was a perfect day for it. Fun to see extended family once again.

Time to say goodnight!
