A Good Time Had By All


I had the great fortune of going to Northern Minnesota to visit parents and sister/brother in law with my two adult daughters. In this beautiful pristine landscape we ate ableskievers, wrote New Year goals in Hibbing, MN, bought yarn and needles for knitting, cross country skiied, ice fished and then ate the fish, nailed up photos of ancestors on my parents livingroom wall, watched birds outside the window eat from the feeders,laughed and enjoyed everyones company. We even brought in the New Year watching Field of Dreams. "Is this heaven? No, it is Iowa."
