2007 Vacation -- Monday



Bodie is truly an Anderson. He grimaced when he tasted chocolate pudding, he won’t even try ice cream, but today he ate smoked lake trout without a blink! His great grandpa Andy, whose fish smoker I can smell to this day, would be proud!

Bodie also took his first steps into the frigid waters of Lake Superior and didn’t want to get out. His grandpa, who I’ve seen bathe in Lake Superior at Isle Royale, will be proud!

Of course, I wanted those first steps to be taken in Minnesota where Lake Superior’s water is more pure. But, we were at the beach and the breaking waves made Bodie laugh and want to get in the water. I tried to explain to him that it would be worth the wait but he just walked in.



I am fascinated by the books found in the condo or cabin rental. There are always gems hidden among the dime store novels. Ours is an eight-volume Treasury circa. 1942 that includes A Treasury Of American Literature, A Treasury Of The World’s Greatest Speeches, and, my favorite, A Treasury Of The Familiar.
