More Pictures from the Lake

This is Lake Washburn up in Outing, MN; Bear Paw Resort....we've been here before two years ago and C-man loved it then and he loved it even more...his sister took follow and loved it as well. The pictures below show the nature, the great outdoors that we enjoyed all week. We enjoyed the water, sand, and sun.....(not so much the mosquitoes, but at least I could wear Deet this year, last time I was pregnant and couldn't)





Lake Washburn at sun down..............................................The Bald Eagle sitting on her gigantic nest



Here's the Loon that makes the monkey noises at night....Miss O would hear them and ask, "do you hear the loon, do you hear the monkeys?"

C-man and Mommy taking a spin on the go-karts or what C called them Mario karts. He thought that I was a crazy driver after the race.

Dragonflies were very prevalent at the lakeshore........the last day we witnessed the life cycle of the dragon fly.......watching the nymphs crawl from the lake to the side of the beach railroad ties where they latched on and molted right there in front of us and then the brand new green dragon flies squeezed out of their shell and sat there for awhile then flew away....while the ants would start to carry away the molten shells.....it was very fascinating....we had biology lesson up close and personal!

Grandma's with their grandchildren there were 14 total children at the lake 9 years and younger!
