We are heading out for the Minnesota Boundary Waters

We are heading out today for the Boundary Waters. We won't be on the water until Monday morning......have a few things to do first.

This morning we are picking up a gal in St. Francis and then taking two vehicles to Platte......our car and the PLYC van. Robbi will be going on with a group of young people to a Bible Conference in Wisconsin. We will be heading to Madison, WI to meet Mike and Julie and the kids on Sunday. We (Gary and I and Trenton and Austin - our two oldest grandsons) will then take off for Ely, Mn.

We will spend 4 days and 3 nights in the Boundary Water Wilderness area.....canoeing and portaging and fishing. Our hope, of course, is for fair weather and sunny days......but we know that that isn't always the case. We are prepared as best as we can. We also know that growing 12 and 13 year olds can eat mom and dad out of house and home ......so we think (and hope) we are prepared for that :)

We will be getting off the water on Thursday (June 30) and traveling back to SD with the boys --- they will stay through Camp and then we will take them home to Michigan. BUSY BUSY......but lots of fun anticipated.

Prayers are always appreciated.
Gary and Barb
