Family Vacation! - Burrous Bay in June

Dad (Dave Brown) flew out to Chicago,  teamed up with sister Molly and the six of us enjoyed a five day trip to Michigan's Upper Peninsula.  As the story goes, in 1909 a spot of land on Lake Huron was homesteaded by ancestor Virginia Burrous, and generations of Browns have played on the same shore ever since...

Carlton and Joey made their debut this year, and we especially enjoyed the mild weather and spring charms early June had to offer. Here are a few photos, I have yet to make an album - but Dad did! (link below)

As usual, great photos! Looks like it was a perfect time. What a great family tradition!
And sorry about this silly, double comment thing. :)
