A Day in Hayward, WI

We spent a LONG day in Hayward, WI yesterday. We started off with a 2 hour lunch at Huong's Vietnamese Restaurant where John delivers. He thought their deliveries were above average (fresh product, not prefab, frozen stuff) and the owners are very nice. We ate there and it didn't disappoint! Gluten free friendly! Which is such a relief for me. They gave us a bunch of free things to sample. Yum.

We walked around downtown Hayward and window shopped. There is a chocolate store. Which is also an old-fashion candy store. Candy pack to the gills and here and there and everywhere! The girls were very impressed that such a thing existed.

We drove past a "hobbit hole" earth sheltered vet. LOVE IT! Also by our favorite mead place, White Winter Winery, but they were closed by the time we arrived. :(

Park Point Excursion

A pit stop at the Country Store by the Lake. That's so my place! Another day trip to Park Point. We went to the end and walked a ways past the airfield into the woods. We ended up playing in Lake Superior on the walk back.

Amnicon Falls, WI

Just a little day trip out to Amnicon. A picnic, spashing and fun was had by all.

I Like Big Mutts and I Cannot Lie

Izzy and Emily (and Emily's Dad Andy) volunteered at the Duluth Dog show this summer. It was wonderful to see all the different kinds of dogs.

Isobelle The BlackSmith

Izzy tried her hand at Blacksmithing, to follow in her fathers shoes. She made a beautiful hook! She managed to keep her hands clean, but dirtied them up on purpose, because she didn't feel they were dirty enough to feel like a true blacksmith. Her father is her basis for comparison. :)
