San Diego of the Midwest

This weekend, it was as if we were in San Diego!! Perfect weather, light breeze, seagulls all around. We had Sunday brunch at a place called Chase on the Lake- a nice resort on Leech Lake. We couldn't afford to stay there, but at least we sat on the patio and had brunch. After brunch, we drove back to Birch Lake to go "fishing"- which was kind of funny since we had no idea what we were doing. This is a funny picture. I don't know what happened to it so that the little boy is cut in half. These little boys were really friendly, talkative and helpful. They showed us how to put the bait on properly. The little blonde boy was really trying to engage Jasmine, give her fishing hints, etc. She kept her head down with her hair over her face the whole time and never said a word:(. After awhile, the little boy pointed over to Jasmine and said "Does she ever talk"? which was kind of funny, but kind of not. I am constantly having to make excuses to people as to why she doesn't talk:(, but it WAS funny in how he said it:))
