Dessert at the Skarin Family Homestead

After a low key morning, complete with an eight and six-mile run for Bruce and I, respectively, we went to the Skarin family homestead for a family gathering where Grandpa Bob’s cousin, Kim and her husband Doug put on quite the spread of desserts. They live in a lovely house that has been in the Skarin family for over 80 years! It was great to hear some stories of when Grandpa Bob and Great Uncle Jim were young and the time that they spent in that house with family. When we returned to the hotel that evening, we spent some time visiting with Omi, Grandpa Bob, Aunt Kristina and Uncle Ty while Evan and Hannah slept.
