At long last the weather seems to have caught up with the calendar and spring appears to be making a belated appearance here in the north country.
Charles took advantage of the weather and went to International Falls, MN. Why, you ask? To say he'd been there, of course! That is the location of the lowest temperature in the continental US every year and it seemed like a good time to say he'd been there. He passed on the chance to cross over into Canada and instead visited a portion of Voyageurs National Park. This is very unique setting and Charles would love to visit it again, next time with a canoe! While Charles didn't see any moose on this day, he did get a picture with the Visitor Center's resident Bullwinkle stand-in. One thing that did stand out in the visit was the sight of a truck driving across the frozen lake! We had heard that the ice was no longer safe for driving but apparently that far north there are exceptions!
He also wanted to visit a black bear sanctuary but it was closed (the bears are still asleep) and then he tried to see the US Hockey Hall of Fame but it too was closed (for rennovation). Belinda took advantage of his absence to get some rest before the driving resumes again!
Tomorrow promises to be a good driving day so come back and see where we end up!
