Boone Family Reunion

Boone Family Reunion chipsters

The biennial Boone Family Reunion was held at Pellican Lake in norhtern Minnesota this year. Most of the attendees I met for the first time at this event; my mother's cousins and their kids and grandkids. Lots of them. They must look at the single, childless Munn girls of the west and scratch their heads. Do they think "odd" or "lucky" or "poor things"?

We had an excursion out to a series of waterfalls, another outing to an iron mine where we got to go 1/2 a mile under the earth and walk around with bats, and a canoe trip on a winding river.

There was also the MOSQUITO INCIDENT which I will detail in another post. I had a great time hanging out with Mom, Kristin and Spencer and getting to know my kin a bit better.
