Anniversary Weekend


Hi all!  Sorry I've been a little absent posting on your blogs this weekend, but I was off the grid for an anniversary getaway to a cabin up north.  I can't believe we have been married for two years- the time has flown by!

It was so nice to just get away and relax!  We went on lots of hikes (Inga came with us, too), and we did a little exploring around the towns where we found a fabulous agate and mineral museum!  Here's some pictures of our weekend away:
The moon over Lake Superior
Sunrise on our first morning
John made these stacks of rocks while I hunted agates :)
We played a lot of backgammon... I'm not sure who ended up in the lead
Olives and cheese for dinner :)
Hot chocolate at the Rustic Inn
These are naturally florescent!
This is a calcified dragonfly!  Both this and the picture above were at Beaver Bay Agate Shop, an absolute must-stop if you're in the area.  We loved it :)
The traditional 2nd year gift is cotton.  John got me a Moby Dick tote bag and a library card pouch, both from Out of Print Clothing

I hope you all had a fantastic weekend and a great start to your week!  I'll be busy catching up on all my blog reading :)

    1. It's in Beaver Bay, which is a little north of Two Harbors, MN (which is a little north of Duluth). You would love it! The museum is awesome, but there's a shop attached, too, with agates and fossils and all kinds of rock beads. It's amazing :)
