Here are some pictures during our camping trip up north in mid-June. This day was absolutely perfect, and we enjoyed a picnic lunch where the Knife River meets Lake Superior, on the North Shore.

We did loads of agate-hunting, finding pocketfuls of mostly tiny jewel-like agates.

Ben and Ellie weren't quite as into the smoked fish we got from Russ Kendall's Smokehouse nearby, but Ted, Noelle and Max LOVED it, as evidenced below:
