From our visit in 2012 we fondly remember Grand Marais as the location of the first gas station west of Muskallonge and a restaurant where we grabbed a meal before hurrying off to Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. This time we lingered a little. Now we can tell you that it is home to Woodland Park Campground which boasts a laundry room and is situated between Lake Superior and the First Lutheran Church whose chimes ring every half hour from 8AM to 8:30PM. It’s also home to the Lake Superior Brewing Company restaurant which was out of many many menu items but served a decent Chicken Tenders meals and a nice Pale Ale. They didn’t offer dessert but directed us to the Breakwall Bakery and Cafe where we enjoyed a luscious Cherry Cheesecake and coffee. We must go back sometime to try the Fudge Puddles! On the three block walk back to the T@B we stopped by the gas station/grocery and restocked our larder after locating their geocache! Grand Marais is definitely on our map now. We’ll be back to explore this tiny town more thoroughly!

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

A lovely way to spend a Sunday in Hampstead. We visited the historic Fenton House to view lots of lovely collectibles, to listen to and learn about harpsicords, and to tour and linger in the garden before heading off to the historic Spaniard’s Inn for a most delectable Sunday Roast.

Excursion to Bath, England

Excursion to Bath, England

Bath, England is an amazingly inviting place with deep deep history. One little day trip isn’t anywhere near enough but we did enjoy delving into the history of the Roman Baths, basking in the beauty of Bath Abbey, and topping our visit off with Tea and Bath Buns!
