On a recent 4th of July weekend, Mike and Patti traveled to a cabin on McClain Lake in northwest Wisconsin, owned by Mike's parents. The entire family gathers on this weekend every year for watersports including fishing, canoeing and swimming, and lots of wonderful conversation around the campfire. Patti just happened to catch these photos from the dock just before sunset. If you click on the thumbnails below, the photo will open full size on a new page. Enjoy!
