Vacations and Getaways

Since meeting Yumi, we have together explored our nation's National Parks, skied in Michigan's U.P. and explored the Wisconsin Dells and other places. Here is a small sample of our travels.

Needing to get away from work and school, Yumi and I head north of the border to take in some fall colors and get snowed and rained on instead.
August 2004: Mall of America
We went to the mall and didn't get along too well. But what can you expect from a trip to Minnesota, anyway? We survived.

Yumi and I decide to take the entire tribe in a 29' RV to Yellowstone, the Grand Tetons, the Black Hills and all points between. Yes, we survived and lived to tell about it.
June 2003: Wisconsin Dells
What could be more "Wisconsin" than to head to the Dells for a weekend of waterparks, tourist traps and the Wisconsin River?
