IMG_2657 We hosted the Lawrence X Country ski team this weekend. It was a weekend full of food, skiing, saunas and lots of laughs with this group. My son Jake and his girlfriend Michelle are part of the group and they shared their amazing weekend in pictures. Thanks to them for sharing 1622253_10202472282720812_1926991898_n This is the reason they ventured to the Northwoods to enjoying some skiing getting ready for the Birkie next weekend in Hayward. Amazing scenery at Winter Park this weekend with lots of snow and great grooming 923113_10202424456085176_1660629082_n Skiing at sunset 1901317_10202424455165153_404508271_n Amazing picture at Winter Park 1609860_10202424456525187_579607224_n Big thank you to Michelle and Jake for sharing the pics. Michelle is the photographer and did a wonderful job! They skied for 2 days and Saturday Michelle had the opportunity to go to the sea caves at Cornucopia by Bayfield about an hour and a half from the resort with her family. She shared her amazing pics. Enjoy and thanks to Michelle again for sharing 1912228_10202472115476631_749685727_n Every few years Lake Superior freezes enough to allow people to walk out on to the ice to see the ice formations in the sea caves. It is a truly amazing sight and thousands gathered this weekend to venture out on the ice. I would have loved to do this but..... IMG_3878 We had to go to Steven's Point to watch Ben swim at the Sectional swim meet. The sea caves and the sectional meet were both a sight to see. Ben did well and is off to state with the relay teams as an alternate this next weekend. Congrats to the Lakeland swim team and Ben! Off to Madison. Now back to the sea caves of Lake Superior 1924489_10202472116036645_1282608523_n This is what folks venture on the ice to see. Simply amazing 1609667_10202472131117022_1873210479_n 1625712_10202472115716637_423709094_n 1656024_10202472121236775_1352480085_n Somebody I am not saying who left a message in the ice.. 1782166_10202472118796714_1675662564_n 1798654_10202472115956643_1523443323_n 1688059_10202472140597259_32019430_n 1800240_10202472121636785_633255724_n Thanks to the Johnson Family for sharing their adventure. It remains on my bucket list of things to do 1620682_10202472117636685_882432837_n Back to the car. Michelle has one piece of advice for anyone going out to the ice. Make sure you stop to use the bathroom there are no porta potties on ice. Also there is a shuttle out to the caves from a parking lot in town but she said it would have saved time to just park on the county road and walk in IMG_3925 Happily back at Lawrence University and ready to take on the rest of the quarter after a wonderful break in the Northwoods. Had to treat mom to a nice brunch in the cafeteria for the ride back to school. Cafeteria food is not what I remember at college. Thanks again to Michelle for all the great pics The Lawrencians are welcome back anytime!
