Each year my in-laws take the kids for a weekend so we can get away. This year they took them camping over Labor Day weekend. Chad and I decided to go up to Lake Vermillion and stay in a nice cabin at Spring Bay Resort. We got a "new to us" truck this summer so we hooked up the boat and drove to a family cabin near Superior, WI for night one.
We got up early the next morning to start our 3 hour drive to the resort. We went through beautiful Duluth on the way.
We arrived in Cook, MN...a small little town.
and stayed in a beautiful log cabin (aka trailer made cabin in the woods).
We took the boat out. Did a little exploring and some fishing.

Sunday evening we drove to the Vince Shute Wildlife Sanctuary in Orr, MN to see Black Bears. It was an awesome experience! The workers come out each evening and put food on stones or logs around the open area. The Black Bears come out from the woods to eat and then return back to the woods. They say bears come from miles just for the food and they continue to feed them until the last bear show each fall. At one point I could count 23 bears!

Monday morning we headed out early for another fishing session before heading home.
