The sun was shining, my house was clean and I didn't want to spend money today. With plans to go to
Duluth's Lakewalk for a stroll, we got a little side tracked and turned left instead of right at highway 61. Thank goodness I remembered my camera. Destination?
Gooseberry Falls. The trip was worth a little bit of comedy...there are stairs that go down to the falls and when you get to the bottom this time of year, it is pure ice...
After I got my shots, I started back to my daughter and hubby as a family of 5 were coming down...Mom warns the teen sons "if you didn't know, it's really icy down here" as they skip down the stairs. Son #1 steps of the last step and BAM! Down he goes! Son #2 is just steps behind him...last step down, BAM! down he goes...Yes, I was laughing inside and really wanted to stay and see how many people did the same thing. I know, I know, it was wrong and I am glad nobody was hurt but it really was funny! So here are the pics from our little journey up the shore.
