Duluth and more goodbyes

This weekend Curtis and I got to spend in Duluth (for those of you who don't know, that is where I spent the first 16 years of my life). Duluth is a very beautiful city, right on Lake Superior. I have been promising Curtis a trip there since we met - finally we made it!

We stayed with my grandparents (the Garnetts)- well very special friends of mine who have been like grandparents to me for as long as I can remember...we stayed with them and hung out with them most of the trip. Sat evening we drove up the North Shore a bit - and as you can see in the pictures - the shore had HUGE chunks of ice, a very impressive shoreline.

Today - Sunday - we went to the church I grew up at, it was so good to see so many old friends again...I told a number of people 'that church was like a second home to me', I guess that comes with the territory of being the pastor's kid :) Of course it is Sunday so we had brunch - a special treat we went to the Top of The Harbor. This is a restraunt the spins in a circle (takes about an hour) so in the time it takes to eat your meal you can see all of Duluth and the harbor.

It was a much overdue trip to Duluth, but so fun! I wish we could have stayed longer, but I am so glad we finally got to go. Curtis agreed, Duluth is a really amazing city!
