Mini Lake Week

It was no where near as fun as annual Lake Week, but I was going to lose my mind if we didn't get out of town and on some water. We rented a little place on Battle Lake, in Battle Lake, MN (population 875). It had several cozy similarities to YBHome and we settled in pretty well. There was some road paving going on, happily, most of it moved on down the street. The weather was beautiful. The water was fine, not too cool. The kids were happy to have Bill jumping off the end of the dock with them. And a rock collection was started. We watched several Star Wars movies -out of order! 

Here we are at a rest stop. Masks on!





Ottertail, MN bakery with the 'best buns in town'. We stopped at Ottertail Lake to enjoy our donuts.





On the way home we stopped and 'hiked' Inspiration Peak, the 2nd highest plateau in the state. It's 400 above ground level and a 1/4 mile hike up to the top.
