SPOONER, WISCONSIN

“UP NORTH”

OUT WEST PEOPLE GO “UP TO THE MOUNTAINS” TO VACATION, GET AWAY, AND RELAX. HERE IN THE MID-WEST, THEY GO “UP NORTH”. WHEN YOU LOOK UP, “UP NORTH” IN THE DICTIONARY IT SHOULD SAY, SPOONER WISCONSIN.

IT’S AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL, PEACEFUL, AND RELAXING. WE CHECKED INTO THE GUEST HOUSE ON CABLE LAKE, HOME OF UNCLE HANS AND WENDY OUR BLOGGING PARTNERS.

WE CAUGHT A BEAUTIFUL WARM SUNNY AFTERNOON AND THE LAKE WAS SMOOTH AS GLASS. WE TOURED THE LAKE ON THE PONTOON BOAT, AND THE WATER WAS SO CLEAR YOU COULD SEE THE WALLIES, BLUE GILLS, NORTHERN, AND TURTLES IN THE WATER.





OF COURSE “UP NORTH” INCLUDES A LITTLE TAVERN RUN, WHERE WE MET UP WITH JAKE AND WOODY, THE BAR DOG. WOODY WOULD BE SMILING EXCEPT HE JUST LOST $2, ON SHAKE – A – DAY.
