Winter is Here

Well last weekend we got our first major swath of snow for the year. The Cloquet area received about 13" while further north near Two Harbors they received over 18". We decided to get out outside and enjoy it for a day. That is doing anything besides shoveling.......

We traveled north to our property which is located just south of Two Harbors. Sara took this picture of one of the abundant birch tress.


This will hopefully someday be our future building site for our home. If you look real close you can see the steel blue waters of Lake Superior through the trees. Lake view property it is not.
The City of Cloquet plowed the snow into a windrow down the center of main street. They'll come by later and haul it away to a snow dump.

The city's locomotive decorated in Christmas Light for the season. It originally ran for the DM&IR (Duluth, Messabi, & Iron Range) railroad back in the hey day of the Red Ore Iron Mines.

I'm impressed by the blog that you two have put together. I went through my e-mail at MTU today and seen your update to the page. It looks like you had a well travel year last year. I really enjoyed looking at all of the pictures that you took. Good to see that you're having fun.
