Duluth.

After the marathon, Mitch was a great support!

If you look in the distance, you can see the lighthouse

We went to Duluth this weekend. It's in northern Minnesota next to Lake Superior. I ran Grandma's Marathon. The marathon was beautiful, all along Lake Superior. We also went to Split Rock Lighthouse, about 40 miles north of Duluth, and on a boat cruise on a small section of Lake Superior.

All in all we had a wonderful weekend.

Happy Father's Day!

Dad,

Thank you for everything.

Happy Father's Day!

Love you.

The Farmer's Market in Rochester

We went to the farmer's market on Saturday in the RAIN! It's been raining all weekend. I came across these delicious strawberries and couldn't resist. They were oh so delicious.

Happy Summer.

Marsala.

Folks, I cooked CHICKEN MARSALA all by myself, well with a little help from Mitch. It was my first experience cooking with wine and I was so excited when the meal turned out well.

The recipe came from this cookbook, Mitch gave it to me for Mother's Day. We have cooked a few recipes from the book and have been satisfied with every single one.

I wish all of you happy cooking.

Happy summer.

W E E K E N D . . .

Last weekend we went to a Honkers, Rochester's local baseball team, game with Audrey, Shad, Breanna and Nate. We had an excellent time and the Honkers even won.
We are loving Rochester summers.

Madison

We went to Madison, Wisconsin with Jonny, Jenny and Kimball on Saturday and Sunday. The city is half way in-between Chicago and Rochester. Madison is one of the greatest cities I have been to. There are great restaurants and shops. The city is also between two lakes. We loved the city. Jonny ran a marathon and did a great job.

We hope to go back soon.

Summer in Rochester

On Friday we had a campfire with Audrey and Shad.

We made delicious tin foil dinner, went fishing and ate smores.

It was fabulous.
