4th of July

We spent this 4th of July on the St. Croix river with my family. We had a great day just relaxing on the boat (we saw two bald eagles!) and swimming in the river with my parents. The water was much warmer here than at Rainy Lake and I definitely got in a lot to cool off.


In the evening we picked up my friend Tara and her little one, Tyler. It was so much fun to have them on the boat for the evening! We anchored out close to the Stillwater bridge and prepared ourselves for some amazing fireworks. We had a couple hours to kill before the fireworks started so we took another swim in the river. Tyler was great on the boat and he was amazed when the fireworks started!

It was a great 4th! We enjoyed being back home on the river for the fireworks but we still missed our friends in Athens!
