It was one of a few that were offered for free to good homes. Not a single flea in sight, though Mary wanted to adopt a 6-week-old kitten. The summer leaves are just now coming out, creating a soft multi-tone hue of green over the landscape.Īs we passed through the town of Sand Stone, we stopped at a local flea market. We stopped at the scenic wayside rest area to check out the view down into the valley. Known as Veteran’s Memorial Highway, it seemed appropriate for this weekend. Highway 23 is a 2-lane blacktop road headed south out of Fond du Lac, the last community on the far west edge of Duluth. This also gives us a chance to pull off at every attraction that appeals to us along the way. The less-traveled roads have much better scenery to enjoy. Plus, it stretches the gas a bit further. In no hurry, driving through the countryside at 55 mph is just about right. Leaving Duluth, we headed down Highway 23. We headed to the Grand Casino’s RV Resort for the Memorial Day weekend.
