Isn't Minnesota BEAUTIFUL?!?!
The fam...and my cute Grandpa who went with us!
This was pretty cool...I have never seen this in action before. This is where they would fix the horses shoes, etc.
There was about 75 lumberjacks & 1 cook with 2 assistants...they had to make three meals a day and got paid $50 a month! The cook worked from about 3 am until late at night. I'm not quite sure I'd be so willing to do that!
Ok...this is the pooper...yes...the pooper. Apprently they would wake up in the morning & take shifts 8 at a time all on the same log...gross.
Here is where they slept (two to a bunk). They couldn't bathe, shower or wash their clothes so you can imagine how awful the smell must have been.
They had a little place inside where you could look around, a few movies to watch about the lumerjacks & some fun things for the kids to look at. All in all...it was worth an afternoon there! Not sure we'll go back anytime soon but it was a fun adventure for this year!
