The cabin


We just got back from a one night getaway with my family. We went to a cabin several hours from our house that I have grown up going to. It is a rustic cabin on a lake in the mountains. The only access is by foot or by non-motorized boat. There is no electricity and the only bathroom is an outhouse (and not just any outhouse but a two seater). Owen went on his first boat ride! We loaded up our stuff in the row boat and my dad rowed us across the lake to the cabin. Owen was very intrigued by the boat ride, mostly by the oars splashing in the water. He got lots of attention from his Grandparents and his Uncle Tim and Auntie Amy. The first day we took naps, had a delicious roast for dinner and played cards all night. I was a little nervous it would be too cold for Owen that night but we had a fire going and he got to snuggie up in our bed. The next day we went on canoe rides and relaxed before boarding up the cabin for winter. Owen must have had a good time because he has been sleeping all day today.
