Great Weekend

Mike and I have a truly awesome weekend. Here is just a quick overview of what we did

Friday: I got off early and we drove to South Rolly Campground (http://www.dnr.alaska.gov/parks/aspunits/matsu/sorollylkcamp.htm) We got an awesome site, right on South Rolly Lake, where we could put the kayak in the water from the site! We saw loons and Mike saw some beavers.

Saturday: Got up and drove to the Alaska State Fair where we met Samantha and Jacob. Ate a TON of food, went to a lumber jack show, looked at the world record cabbage and the hundred of shops. Then drove back to the camp ground for a fire, and some kayaking and reading.

Sunday: Got up had eggs and sausage for breakfast, yummy! Went on a 6 mile hike to Red Shirt Lake and back. Then drove to friends cabin. My boss, Brian, and Mike co worker, Lindsey, are siblings and invited us out their family cabin in Willow, off of Shirley lake. So we hung out all day with them, had a BBQ dinner, went on another walk and played some games. We stayed up way to late and drank a little too much but it was a great time.

Monday: Slept in, had sourdough pancakes, bacon and sausage for breakfast. Did some kayaking on Shirley Lake and saw a loon family (mom, dad, and baby). Packed up, helped clean up the cabin and headed home!

We had such an awesome weekend. I love getting away from it all but back to real life this week.
