july already!

Hi! You know, I thought I had posted some other pictures on here already. Strange! And if so, bummer!

So I've actually got quite a few pictures to post and info to tell, so we best get right at it!

First the kayaking trip to Bayfield. Well, to kayak and to go see Robert Bly. I drove down with Diane, and Grasshopper and Annie, Ash from Ashland, and Diane's friend Jimguy, and Erin and Scott met us there. It was a blast. Erin and Scott were there for a songwriting session and concert on Saturday night. The kayaking was fantastic on Thursday and Friday, probably made more so because it was the first time I had been out in the boat all summer. It just ain't right. And it's the middle of July and where did it all go????

Anyway, here's our site. We had 3 tents set up, and Jimguy slept on the beach.

Friday night we went to see Robert Bly. Grasshopper was so excited!! Oh, first we all met up at this restaurant called Maggie's. It was pretty awesome. Tons of great food. We thought we were going to be late for Bly's reading, but we did well. Grasshopper ran to the bathroom, came back and informed us that he had just taken a whiz with Robert Bly. Imagine!!! AND they talked. How freaking cool is that?

Here's Grasshopper and Annie:
