Annie! - Day 299

  You may remember when I helped an NCT hiker named Annie Nelson a little over 3 years ago. She is now the Development and Communications Director for the Superior Hiking Trail Association. We stayed in touch and have become pretty good friends. Marie had also previously met her at one of the NCTA Celebrations. Today we met in Two Harbors for dinner and some catching up.

Where did we meet? Well, if you know me, and you know Two Harbors, you know we went to Betty's Pies! Of course we had pie (strawberry-rhubarb and raspberry-rhubarb), but we also had a good dinner first.

And what about the rest of the day? The alternate title of this post could be Another Transition Day. We sorted all the stuff in both cars, and did laundry, and sorted and repacked the trailer, and made lists. Remember that I told you not to worry about the Border Route Trail being left out? Stay tuned.

Most importantly, we did not have to wake up to an alarm clock!

I've had strawberry rhubarb pie before but never raspberry rhubarb. That sounds good.
Not having to wake up to an alarm clock is my favorite kind of morning.

Lulu: "Our Dada didn't wake up to an alarm clock today either! But that's because he forgot to set it after waking up at 3am yesterday, not being able to get back to sleep, and finally shutting off the alarm and getting up around 4am ..."

Ann- agreed!

Lulu- Maybe Dada had an oops. We love it when the alarm doesn't have to be deployed.
