Catching Up With Some of the WT's

Emily and her husband took a BWCAW Trip for the first time in many years. They thought they were too old to sleep on the ground. In fact, her husband slept in a hammock.

Mary's Honey Crisp apples are plentiful. She wonders if she will have to bring in some immigrant help to pick them for her! The little birds are hollowing them out. Rather than just taking a peck out of many, they had chosen a few and one was just a shell of an apple left after their feasting. Mary brought apples for all to coffee today.

The unveiling of the painting at Pat's house was nice. The painting, a lithograph, is "Interior With Two Picassos." Pat's husband gave a presentation about the artist and the painting. The group enjoyed studying it---lots of details including a pair of rose-colored glasses. Sorry we have no photos to share since Joan's batteries in her camera had died.

We had a big group for breakfast on Monday. We try to have breakfast together once a month--it's good for us and good for the business where we have coffee each morning.

Jodie has kept us posted on her fly fishing trip in Colorado through her own 'Blog. We are a traveling group and we do keep in touch with each other.

There was an article in the Duluth paper about the "rebirth" of our area. That was good news--especially after the announcement about the movie theatre's closing-- and we'll share it with our readers next week.

We'll also share information about our upcoming Autumnal Equinox party next week. Keep checking this spot.
