Weekend in Lanesboro

                                                   All set up in the campsite

                                Paul and Rick trying a little trout fishing
                                   The ducks trying not to freeze to death.....

We decided to do a weekend end in Lanesboro for our first camping trip with the new camper. Jane and Paul also went so they were a big help when it came to all our questions about setting up the camper. I think we have it all down now and should be able to do it on our own. It really is not to hard but when we picked it up they told us so many things it was overwhelming. Now that we have done it we realize that it is no big deal.
We are so happy with the camper and are very happy that we decided to get it. It was so nice to have a bathroom! No more cold, dark trips to the campground bathrooms in the middle of the night!
We brought our bikes with us because the Lanesboro area has lots of great bike trail. To bad we did not have good biking weather. We never even took the bikes off the truck. We were going to go on Saturday but we had 30-40 mph winds. Even Rick said that was to windy for him to bike in. So instead we just spent the whole weekend relaxing. It was wonderful. Rick has been so busy with work and making strings that he needed some time to just do nothing. We did a little trout fishing, but they were not biting. Maybe because it was to cold!! It got down to 30-35 both nights we were there. I don't know how the people that were in tents did not freeze to death. I was glad we have a heater and a nice warm feather-tic.
We packed up Sunday morning and were on the road around 9:30. On the way home we stopped at Menards and pick up a couple things we needed for the camper. We  were back home and unpacked by 1:00. It is so nice to be able to leave most everything in the camper now. It makes packing and unpacking much easier.
Today it is back to work, but only for 4 days since I am on my weekends off. Not soon enough.......

Later
