I posted a bunch of these on facebook a while back but I guess I forgot to post any here. The are from our caming tri to the U.P. back in October.


As you can see, my little man is all grown up now and he's still the perfect camping/hiking buddy.

Sig and I love these things when we're up North. I buy about a dozen of them in Mackinac city and we share them all week.

"Look dad, red sand!"

"Do I have something on my nose?"

"Rocke climbing is fun, it builds muscle"

"I found a shipwreck dad!"

That "biscuit thing" is the greatest food ever invented. It's called a pasture. Pronounced "pass-tee". They were eaten by u.p. miners that had emigrated from Wales in thee 1800's.they have beef, potatoes, rudabagoe, and other veggies depending on what kind you get. All in a nice baked crust.

Take my advice and do NOT google Pasty while at work! LOL!

We love the U.P. and try to get up there every year or so. Mackinack Island, Sault St. Marie, Whitefish Point, Pictured Rocks, a little town called Paradise, that one just must see. .

Great pics, thanks for sharing.

PASTY!

Pasty history begins in the Cornwall area of England, they were made for the tin miners there. LOVE pasties! LOVE my grandpup Sig, who's a very handsome guy!

You got it right, I mispoke. It's Cornwall not Wales. They made them for the copper miners in the U.P.

The gals in Mackinac at the pasty store make me ones without onions for Sig when we're there. They said it' not uncommon for folks to ask for onionless ones to share with their dogs.

Wow he is all grown up and way to o handsome! LOL
