Afternoon at the Beach: Lake 26 (Wisconsin)

Went to Lake 26 Wednesday afternoon to enjoy the water and beach. Had lunch and then down to the water and beach to cool off. The dogs had a great time swimming and running around on the beach and around the area. The water was nice and shallow and the lake looks like a good place to canoe.

It's a pretty big lake but the beach is quite small. We were the only ones there for a while and the dogs had a great time in the water swimming and running around. Lucy actually learned to swim and would swim out to Jim and jump into his arms like a little kid trying to get out of the water. The water was quite shallow and warm - we were able to kneel out there and enjoy the water.

Duluth, Minnesota

Went to visit Duluth on a bright, sunny day in July. Spent some time at the museum at Canal Point which told about the ships that sailed on Lake Superior. We walked a little along the walkway next to Lake Superior and let the dogs go swimming on a stony beach we found.

St. Croix Haven Campground, Independence Day Parade

There is always something going on at the park. On July 4th weekend there was a parade around the campground where Jerry the owner decorated his antique Fire Truck and other campers decorated bikes, golf carts and trucks and drove around the campground.

I walked around the campground to take pictures of the parade, which was a lot of fun to watch.
