Story

Labor Day weekend 2026 was another Eagle River cottage trip. The neighbors had a kiddie learn-to-ski setup, so Cora got to try water skiing for the first time. The kids also made fast friends with the neighbor kids and basically played together every day.

We hit Peanuts again (Chocolate Shoppe ice cream), and went to St. Germain for dinner and mini golf. I finally got to use my Father's Day present - a new spotting scope - and got some cool bald eagle photos, plus almost a great video of one flying.
