Weekend In Duluth



Since we worked on Friday (our anniversary) we decided to wait until Saturday to celebrate. This morning before we started our journey, we thought we would check out the ski hills. The snow machines have been working around the clock this past week. We started our celebration by getting a massage and facial at The Pebble Spa Co. in Virginia. It is an older home that has been turned into a spa, I just love going there. We stayed at Beacon Pointe Condos (a recommedation from our neighbors in Hudson)in Duluth. It is a very nice place overlooking Lake Superior. Saturday was a beautiful sunny day, probably around 30 degrees. We walked along the lake and had a great lunch at a local cafe we found on Superior Street called Va Bene. It was probably the best lunch we have ever had, no kidding. We had a great view overlooking the Lake and we just kept ordering food so we didn't have to leave. We hit some shops and sipped some wine and espresso, just taking it easy. We watched the Gopher/Iowa football game for the first half and then went to a late dinner in Two Harbors at another recommended place called The New Scenic Cafe. It was another great restaurant with a fresh seasonal menu. We both enjoyed the variety of food we tried. Jason ordered enough food to try so he now has lunch for Monday. We are both so grateful for each other and the five adventerous years we have spent together.

We hope each of you has a Happy Thanksgiving! Jason and Nicole
