Entering the Birch Point Beach Sub-Arctic Zone

Trees are budding around the area but at the moominbeach we still don’t have a lot of leaves. That’s okay. It means we don’t have a lot of MOE-skee-TOES either. Liz at about three, “Mama! There was a MOE-skee-TOE!” Yup. We have a lot of those around here. Once the trees start budding.

I got this pic after a trip to Meijer and the hardware store. I had planned to go to Meijer by myself but the GG wanted to go too and I decided that was okay on the condition that I could trundle along with my own grockery cart by myself. Yes. So. Okay. That’s what we did and we managed it without “fighting”. LOL

It was sooooo cold last night but with my sleeping bag and a comforter I had a beautiful sleep. We hung out on Bill’s Beach Bank Bench for a while this afternoon. Watching the winds change from north to northwest to southwest to whatever.

I forever and forever and ever thank my grandparents for buying this land and helping the next generation (my dad, etc.) own land here. And for all of us in the next generation who have managed to KEEP it.

And to people like the GG who married into the FinFam not having a goddamn CLUE what the HELL they were getting into but rising to the occasion anyway.

    Why do mosquitoes have to exist? Do they serve any purpose at all?? I’m glad you stayed comfortable in the cold. I would never want to get up out of the cocoon.
