Travel Dates: July 31st – August 3rd.
After a few weeks looping through upper Minnesota we had a decision to make. My brother was throwing his wife an incredibly large, super fun 30th birthday party on Friday the 31st. Throwing caution to the wind and managing a long driving day, we made it back to Minneapolis, tucked our Airstream into a spot at the KOA this time and then headed out to party!
Barbie was super surprised to see us (I made my brother keep a secret!) and we had a great time with her parents, family and neighbors.
We also had the opportunity to meet new friends! Heather, Jeremy, and their kids from TakeThatExit.com were passing through and were able to snag a spot next to them at the KOA. Jeff & Co. from @UpintheAirstream decided to join us and suddenly we were taking over the neighborhood.
We also managed to ride, one more time, at Elm Creek Park Reserve since it was so close by. The kids did fabulous, and Rachel only freaked out a little when she got stung by a bee!
Although it was a short weekend, we were grateful to meet new friends and spend time with family. From here we decided to head through Wisconsin to Michigan’s Upper Peninsula before circling Lake Superior!
