Our Trip to the North Shore & Canada

We left for our honeymoon on Sunday night. My parents were gracious enough to stay at our house and take care of their grand-dogs while we were away. Our first stop was the Bungalow in Emily. One of our favorite restaurants. We arrived at Teteegouche State park at midnight. The next day we drove to Grand Marais where we did a little shopping then decided to push onto Canada to see my Grandpa and Uncle who were unable to come to our wedding. We arrived at the fishing camp at 6:00 and enjoyed visiting with them for a bit. We set up our tent in the pouring rain and dined on beer and venison summer sausage by candle light....I mean flash light. Before leaving Canada we stopped at Kakabekah Falls. Back in Minnesota we decided that our luck was pretty good and played the slots at Grand Portage Casino. Gambling Sucks. we lost our 10 dollars right away. We toured the Grand Portage National Monument and headed for Temperance State Park where we camped for our last night.
Now how cool is this?





The old logging roads that take us to our fishing camp in Canada. The fall colors were amazing.



My dear Grandpa K

How romantic that Sean was willing to deface property at a provincial park to declare his love for me! He's called me Goosey forever.

Sean and Chelsie. You know how Auntie Elise cries easily, well the story about the man at the courthouse melted my mascara. Even Uncle John shed a tear. We were so honored to be a part of your wedding. Thank you for choosing our home as the place to commence your lives together. Cheslie, you were a beautiful bride, and Sean, that smile of yours, especially on your wedding day, was infectious. The day was "perfect". There is no doubt that you two were "meant to be". We loved getting to know your family and I want them all to know they are all welcome to stay in our guesthouse at anytime.

Karen and Dave, you raised a beautiful daughter, and Molly, Sean goes without saying, however, I am going to say it, he is one of the kindest and most positive people I know. We are so fortunate to have both Sean and Chelsie so close to us.

Best wishes to you both as you begin your lives together.

Auntie Elise
