Our 30 Days Of Biking

As you have read, this month we took on the 30 Days of Biking challenge.

We've never been able to do it for one reason or another. This time we weren't going to chicken out.

I thought it was going to be easy, but there were some days that I probably would've skipped a bike ride had I not been doing this challenge. I had planned to bike to work the whole month, but by the middle of the month it started to get too dark out during the time I leave.

Meadow and I typically would bike every afternoon that I watched her and then again when Brooke got home. We also took our bikes up to the cottage and Duluth to stay on task.

By the end of the month I kind of started looking forward to going on bike rides together after dinner. I think it also forced us to ride our bikes instead of taking the car to short distances. We lucked out with the mild month and I would definitely try this again next year.

They biked to the park apparently. Meadow and I also took a spin around the neighborhood at sunset.

We'll definitely try again in April. Maybe we can do every day from April until September next year.

Backcountry Camping with Kids in Theodore Roosevelt National Park

Day 1 Back in May I stumbled upon Theodore Roosevelt National Park. I had no idea there was a National Park in North Dakota and that it was the northern end of the Badlands. Usually our summer vacations coincide with Scott's work trips. Since he didn't have any this summer I thought we should take advantage of actually taking a vacation. What, my workcations are always classics? I suppose a second real vacation this year wouldn't hurt. We definitely have more time than normal. As long as we took Covid-19 precautions and avoided people. We finally settled on a time to go. Blake joined us so we borrowed our dad's van so we could ride together. Scott had just driven from Michigan the day before. Blake had met my parents in Wisconsin to get the van and then drove from Duluth to pick us up. I offered to drive since I literally only drive twice a month. I was still pretty tired from a long drive home. Since we were near Fergus Falls we had to stop by the abandoned state ho...

Over the River & Through the Woods to Grandmothers House We Clean

My mom had wanted us to come down to my grandparents home to clean for months. Unfortunately a busy summer had kept us away. We finally made it a week after our honeymoon ended. We slept at my parents home in Cudahy before heading down to Racine. We got home from our trip on Tuesday and left for Milwaukee on Thursday. It was almost like an extended vacation. Before leaving the cities we stopped and had dinner at Foxy Falafel. It was pretty good and I like that she uses sprouted chickpeas. I never knew my grandparents on Poppyseed Tuska's side so Grandma and Grandpa Wojcik were a special part of my life. They both passed away last year after living nearly 90 wonderful years. Their home was always a wonderfully warm and inviting place. The perfect place to spend your Christmas Eve in front of a fire place. Since it's going to be sold, Brooke and I took on the massive task of organizing and cleaning the home. When Scott told me h...

The Cape Cod of the Midwest

We talked Brittany into joining us for a road trip to Door County, WI. Scott had never been there before ( or so I believe) . Considering how short of a drive it is I'm surprised my family didn't go that often, either.
