North Shore For Sale
The Wife, Child and I spent a few days up on the North Shore with the In-Laws this week. Did a lot of hiking and sitting by the lake, resting and relaxing. One interesting thing about the North Shore is that it all seems to be for sale. You can't throw a rock with out hitting a "for sale" sign. Between Duluth and Grand Portage, everything has a price tag.
We even went up the Gunflint Trail only to find that most of that was for sale. Interesting.
We saw other signs as well.
Along they way, we saw lots of these:
And sure enough, we saw deer.
We saw one of these:
Sure enough, we saw a moose.
We also saw a lot of these signs:
But we didn't even see one snowmobile. The daughter was quite disappointed. I tried to explain that it wasn't the right season for them, and maybe we'll come back up when there is snow on the ground. Later, we were going through Lutsen and she saw a snowmobile in someones back yard locked up behind a fence. She thought it was someones pet.
If you know anyone into snowmobiling, you know she wasn't far from the truth.
