i heart fall


It's fall break for us, so my wonderfully foresightful, thoughtful and overall fabulous husband planned a weekend away. We went up to Silver Bay, MN just north of Two Harbors and about an hour north of Duluth. We've got lots of pics (a win!) but they're all from the iphone (fail!) so the quality isn't great.

We spent the day in Duluth on Thursday and ate at some great restaurants: At Sara's Table for lunch and Lake Ave Cafe for dinner. So worth it. Then we drove on up to our lovely little B&B for the night. Despite some rain and colder temps we hiked the Oberg Loop and it was breathtaking! The fall colors, the views of the autumn hills and Lake Superior (which looks more ocean than lake), the crisp air! Ah! So great!

Walking around Duluth on one of the most gorgeous days we've had in a while
The bright colors that I LOVE about this season!

Andrew and I mid-hike. The leaves were unbelievable!
The drive up to the mountain we just as breathtaking
The Baptism River, which we heard from our window at the B&B

My car post hike, post rain, post 30 minute drive on muddy gravel roads. Our car looked so hard-core! This was pre-gas station car wash :)

Just a view on the way to dinner!

Ow Ow! What a cutie...and so photogenic!

More pictures to come, but I've got to unpack and clean up the house
