I really enjoyed helping Owen pack out his college house and move his belongings to our home in Caspian. We rented a U-Haul in Marquette and after clearing out his house, we then drove to Caspian and set Owen up on our second floor. He will be in Caspian for a couple of weeks while his brother Oliver finishes exams at St. Norbert College. It was nice to see him and meet his friend Parker. Oliver is such a great guy!
We took some time on Sunday to enjoy beautiful Lake Superior and the surrounding forests. We hiked up to the top of Sugarloaf Mountain, about a 15-minute drive out of town. The lookout offers spectacular views of Lake Superior on one side, and Hogback Mountain on the other side. Owen took us to Wetmore Landing, a beach a further 5 minutes up the coast. Most of us went for a quick swim (water is very cold in May) and hung out at the beach for an hour. The fresh air, blue skies, cold water, and cool pines/moss are so relaxing for me.
It really is another major milestone in our family. Owen’s graduation brought us such happiness and pride. He is maturing into a fine young man and we are looking forward to see what will be next in his journey to adulthood.
