| Fall Colors on Burntside Lake |

| Inside Our Cabin |
It was our annual fall long weekend of hiking. This year we tried out Camp du Nord, on the North Arm of Burntside Lake. I want to go again!
The weather was beautiful, the fall colors were gorgeous and our cabin was roomy and cozy at the same time.
We hiked Friday and Saturday and the trails were beautiful - let's see, that's twice for that word, but it is just the way it was.
Good food, too, of course and I will be happy if Bea shares her recipe for salad dressing and that apple topping for the ice cream. I know I have to travel to North Carolina to get the ingredients for the sweet potato pancakes, so maybe I can just request that Deb bring them next year too.
Jean was our guide, with a 33 year history of family camping at Camp du Nord. I definitely want to bring my grandsons here next summer if I can get a good draw from the lottery system.
The Saturday night sauna was a highlight. There is just something so very special and unforgetable about cooling off in a cold lake in the lantern lit dark after the hot sauna with the stars shining brightly above and a huge crescent of orange harvest moon sitting on the horizon.
