Lake Vermilion

 We took the RV to Lake Vermilion this weekend. I really liked Lake Vermilion and the area around it. I had never been here before.  It's been so fun going to places in our state that we haven't been to before.  We drove up Thursday night and came home Sunday.  I would definitely come back to this one.  We stayed one night at Hoo Doo Point campsite and two nights at the State Park.  They have a coal mine there you can tour but it was closed this year.  We drove to Ely on Friday.  Had pizza, got bait and window shopped a little.  Ely was a fun town- I could have spent more time there.  We rented a pontoon on Saturday and attempted fishing but had no luck catching any thing.  Of course it rained on us Thursday and Friday night.  I don't think we have had one camping trip that it hasn't rained on us.  Luckily Saturday night was prefect and we got to sneak in a camp fire.  The weekend trips always go fast.

The boys just wanted to swim- they didn't care how cold the water was
They couldn't help but want to swim
