3 Year Old Gorilla

3 Years Old!! Happy Birthday buddy!! Time for a gorilla photo.

Click the "gorilla" tag to see all of his gorilla pictures.

Took Owen to his first Minnesota State Fair. He had a corn dog, fries and some "cheese curds", which in Minnesota are deep fried cheese, not actual cheese curds. Had fun on the tractors and checking out all of the animal barns. He really enjoyed pointing out all of the animal poop.

Duluth

Went to Duluth for a few days. Hung out by Lake Superior, went to the Great Lakes Aquarium, and Gooseberry Falls State Park. Owen had fun driving through all the tunnels on the east end of Duluth and up the North Shore. He didn't want to go in the water at Gooseberry at first, but once he did he didn't want to leave.

We stayed at Spirit Mountain Villas, which are these weird octagonal pods that are elevated about 15-20 off the ground. The "Fox Den" was where we stayed. Owen thought it was pretty cool. We also found a cafe in Duluth with a patio area that allows dogs. So, one morning we brought Zoe with for an al fresco breakfast at Chester Creek Cafe. Cool place.

Still scared of the big T-Rex, but cool with the Troodon. Had fun building the Great Wall of China and crawling through tunnels and logs.

Doesn't get much more fun than a pillow fort.
