Exploring The Basin, before the tourists get to it

This past weekend we had my family up to visit for the weekend.

On Saturday morning we capitalized on the nice weather and took the kids to the Basin.  We had the whole place to ourselves and it was awesome!

Everyone arrived in the afternoon and we had Michele’s famous tacos for dinner.  On Sunday morning we just hung around the lodge, had a big fire, chopped down some trees, etc..

In the early afternoon we headed back home for Eli’s baseball practice.

Overall it was a nice, relaxing weekend and it was great to have my sister and her husband up to the lodge!
