A Short Get-Away

Mom and Dad took 3 nights away while the youngest children were with their cousins (and Aunt and Uncle) They always have a great time with them, and we always know that they are in good hands.

We stayed in a small cottage in Pepin, Wisconsin, owned by friends from Faribault. It's a marvelous little one bedroom house. It's clean, peacefully decorated, and quiet. We read, slept, walked, ate and even watched a couple of older videos on their mini- TV. I think we could have done all that for a few more days.

I had great cups of coffee and a "Killer Cinnamon Roll" at the Great River Coffee Cafe.



We had "Build Your Own Burgers" at the Pickle Factory.



We spent the great part of a day sitting by marina on the lake reading.
