ℹ️ About the Episode: For years, the community has been asking us to come to Duluth... and now we know why! Between the state parks, downtown food scene, Two Harbors and the North Shore, there are endless things to do. Just like the Upper Peninsula, it's pretty far north, which means June might have been a tad early to visit. If it's anything like Michigan, we've learned that summer really kicks off on July 4th. We had rain nearly every day during our visit, but we made the most of it. If we were lucky enough to get some sunny days, we would have taken the Gitchi-Gami State Trail (GGST) all the way to Split Rock Lighthouse. Now that we're familiar with the area, we’d adjust our route to stop by the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore to kayak. This looks like a lot of fun, but might be an activity for later in the summer when the weather is warmer. In this episode, we stayed at a dry camping site at Jay Cooke State Park. We took Charlie on a "hike" to the suspension bridge near the campground. We also visited Split Rock Lighthouse, Gooseberry Fall, and Betsy's Pie-just a few of the highlights in Duluth.

Mark, I know it takes a long time to edit these videos, find music, and build entertainment. I just wanted to say thank you. I really enjoy sitting down in the morning with a cup of coffee and watching them.

[@paulab984]

Totally agree. Loving hearing some of the style of music from your years past with The Neighborly's style. The amount of work you do weekly is amazing. And appreciated!

[@pattysternjacob3713]

Great video of Duluth area. I just watched your first video. I began watching you from the beginning!! You guys were just babies with babies and so happy to see Maddie. Anyway, and look at you NOW!!

[@Marilynlovesebiking]

Hahahahaha, I adore the typewriter and voice of the light house keeper sending a letter.

[@LifeIsTripping]

I surely do appreciate a well edited video, and realize how time consuming it can be! Thank you for this beautiful display of fun, relaxation and journey. Thank you for inviting us all to watch 😊.

[@Swimbikerunpdx]

Recommendation for the “blank” space on your summer to remember list, when you are in Oregon, Crater Lake! Dive off the rocks and swim in the water. Diamond lake is a good nearby park to camp.

[@jkbutkowski]

As a Minnesota native, The North Shore is my favorite place. We make multiple trips there every year and never get tired of it.

[@ericwiese7479]

Same here! At least three times a year

[@amybissonett5347]

Hello Marc and Trish, We loved this video today! My husband and I are born and raised minnesotans (now Texans) and met as college freshmen 37 years ago at UMD in Duluth. It is such a magical place, and it was fun to see it with new eyes! ❤

[@rrb4kids1]

For people that don't know, the old iron bridge that was crossed in the beginning when you cross into Minnesota is a double decker bridge. Cars on the bottom and the train on the top. Very cool bridge!

[@charlenecastaldo3602]

One of my very favorite videos ever! Thanks Trish, Marc, Charlie and Caleb. ❤

[@tedwilliams1000]

Rustic Inn is a lot better than Betty’s for pies. The Lakehead Boat Basin RV park is super convenient to Canal Park. Just a couple of blocks and a stroll across the lift bridge.

[@leann4925]

After spending two weeks in rehab from a fall and coming home to hurricane Beryl with no electricity for three days this was fun to watch. Great seeing Charlie as he is so loveable and precious. Loved going through the tunnel and seeing the light house. Thank you so much. Hugs to Charlie.

[@roseandmiron]

Mark and Trish, I just want you guys to know how awesome you are and everybody tells you all the time but I don't know if you really truly understand how much we enjoy you. Thank you for everything that you do to put the videos together and share your life's adventures it is such a blessing and a fun place to sit and watch I recently got a job offer and had to leave home to go to Kansas City Kansas and I've never been away from my wife that long, and it does get very lonely when I'm away from her even though I do get to fly home once a month which is great. I just want you guys to know that your videos and everything that you guys do helps keep my head occupied by the fun adventures and how much sitting dream of what we're going to do when I get my wife back after this job ends. Thank you, stay safe and God bless looking forward to the next video

Driving north on 53 in to Duluth in dark coming down the hill is one of the most beautiful sites... reflecting of the city off the lake and the views

I think you meant I 35, 53 comes up through WI, over the High Bride.

Yep and when your on the bluf about 8mi from Superior you come down hill and there is a huge open part that allows u to see the a very Long distance... use to call home up that way drive 53 from Eau Clare WI to Orr MN alot ... took my wife to split rock on are honey moon many years ago... I still think of wild rice sausage on pizza often

National Parks are our unique National treasure. Interesting learning about Theodore Rosevelt, Aldo Leopold, John Muir. They came up with the radical idea to set aside land, owned by all Americans. Thank you fellas.

[@starspaa]

Lived in Duluth for 36 years... now I am on the St. Croix River, but was in Duluth, yesterday to pick up some elk and salmon at the Northern Smokehaus in Canal Park. There is so, so, so much to do and explore there. Next time you will want to explore the Marine Museum and watch 1000 foot iron ore ship come into the harbor. There is extraordinary history there including the Clayton, Jackson, McGhie Memorial. I could go on for hours... Duluth will always have my heart.

[@MNP208]

I love it up there in the summer. Winters are tough! Are you still in MN or in Hudson?

[@Deborah1056]

In Minnesota we say we live in "the cities." Or upnorth. Or "about an hour from the cities." Or "first-ring suburb, second-ring suburb. The real Minnesota thing I already mentioned, we measure distance with time. Right now I live 15 minutes from one daughter and 50 minutes from the other. Love your channel!❤ And I loved that you were in Minnesota. I love it here and I've been here all my life.

[@choosetowalkinlight2183]

As a born & raised proud MinnesOtan, this is SOOO true!!! ❤ I work in “the cities” but always share with others, I was born & lived my whole life in a beautiful small river town on the Mississippi just “30 minutes” south. I am “5 minutes” from our oldest daughter & youngest daughter has a “0 minute commute” living in our downstairs apartment. 😂 I’ve been very blessed to travel almost all of the US…As each year passes creating new memories, I have more & more appreciation for our quiet & hidden gem of such a special place filled with the natural wonder of beauty.

[@greggyoung3771]

My wife and I loved this video. We watched it as we drove north to Voyageurs from Chicago - doing a trip that included Isle Royale (Jill watched, I drove and listened). We changed a little of our plans to do three of your suggestions (Betty’s Pies, Gooseberry Falls, and Split Rock Lighthouse). Just got back to Hungry Jack Lodge and Campground north of Grand Marais. I doubt we would have done this little side trip without your suggestions. Thanks! (And the Cherry Crème Pie was AHHmazing!!!)

[@ChristianCareerJoy]

That Suspension bridge is AMAZING! When you left the birds in the background - my dog totally was dialed into the TV!

Haven't been able to watch in a long time. Now that my Julie has passed, I am on her channel writting thing. You guys have no idea what sense of normalcy this provides me and not to mention, amazing memories of us laughing with you both, getting married on Mackinac Island would of been 19 yrs this fall, oh well...I am gonna count it! lol love you guys, Mike & Julie Flynn

[@j.patrickmoore9137]

Our Summer to Remember has turned into a summer we will never forget... we decided to sell our 1/4 interest in our cabin (park model RV), expected it to take up go a year to sell, but it went from listed to sold in less than two months, we spent last week as our final hurrah, brought home all of our personal items. In the meantime, we decided to downsize our home, so we're packing up all the non-essential stuff and the listing should go live in ten days. We've been looking at houses to find the gem that will make sense for our eventual retirement. Selling the cabin is bittersweet, we have been going up for almost ten years, but we also realize that selling it is the gateway to new adventures. We did a yurt camping trip already and will probably rent a few RV's to narrow down our next choice. Amazing area to visit in Oregon is the Metolius River. Lots of National Forest campgrounds, a fly fishing paradise (catch and release only), some RV Resorts in Camp Sherman, golf nearby at Black Butte Ranch, the amazing western-themed town of Sisters, Oregon, and a wonderful loop drive partway down the McKenzie River, then up over McKenzie Pass to Sisters.

[@pamelaklemp5615]

Oh my how this video brought back many fond memories for husband and me. Husband is a Minnesota native son (born and bred). I'm a southern girl who took a job in Minnesota and ended up falling in love and spent 18 years there before we relocated south to Georgia! The North Shore and Boundary Waters are PURE PLATINUM to visit! Camping and the fishing... redefine AWESOMENESS. 😆, Glad you loved the Pies 🥧 ❤ 😋 !

[@ArleneJohnson-dn1kw]

The color of the water at the falls is due to the tannin in the water. It has healing properties.

[@rostang50]

WOW, my family would camp there every year for like 10 years when I was little. It all looks the same. This was 35 years ago. Thank you for bringing back some good memories.

Mark & Trish, I thank God for your channel! I watch every episode faithfully because the life you live is the one I dream of. My husband is as ‘anti-travel’ as a person could possibly be so the only way I can realize my dream is vicariously through you. What a magnificent life the two of you have… PRAISE GOD for each memory you make! (You are living the “daydream” for more than you know.) Thank you for taking me(us) along. ❤

[@johnstephansen4866]

Thanks for highlighting our wonderful State. There is so much to enjoy in Minnesota! Great production as always.

[@NoOverhead]

Funny, I spent this video looking for my own van. This place was absolutely magical. It was my first time seeing the any of the Great Lakes, and I just couldn't believe my eyes. You guys did such a great job capturing it! And, I can confirm the mosquitos were off the charts.

[@insidelaurassuitcase]

As a Minnesotan I can safely say you have only scratched the surface of the North Shore! Hope you come back! Also the UP of Michigan.

[@andrekannon2220]

I have always loved the sound of the White-Throated Sparrow. They are the birds singing at the time of 8:58 in the video. They are my favorite birds called "The Whistler of the North." When they sing, it sounds like they're saying, "My Sweet Canada, Canada, Canada." Another amazing video. I look forward to watching your updates each week! 😊

[@Elizabeth-rq1vi]

That’s a beautiful song to sing…being Canadian it resonates with me 😄🇨🇦🇨🇦

[@mjlouks]

Marc’s curiosity about how Minnesotans identify where we live. City folk, Minneapolis, all live in “The Cities” short for Twin Cities. Other geographical locations are…Up North western Mn or southern Mn. The finger point I think you are speaking of is called The Arrowhead. The wedge from Duluth up to Canada creating a triangle resembling an arrowhead.

[@kelliconlan8133]

Welcome to Minnesota, my home state!! Where our state bird is the Mosquito for 3 seasons of the year! 😂😂 The Duluth area is so beautiful, I have been so many times, and each time, it's just as beautiful as the first time.

When you're back again, you have to go to the Rustic Inn by Two Harbors for their pies. So much better! Lemon Angel and raspberry cream are the best. The crust is meringue. Yum!

[@donkiml5805]

Truly, the best pies. When Betty retired and sold Betty Pies years ago, the pie makers went to the rustic Inn. Wonderful wonderful food at the rustic Inn. You’ll find some of the famous wild rice recipes.

I enjoy your channel started watching 2020. I bought a keystone Laredo, fifth wheel. I didn’t plan to buy as big, but my mom liked the extra bathroom. I was able to take her to many national parks that she wanted to see and I learned when you had your Ginger RVs I’ve been watching ever since I was sad that my mom passed away in 2023 but so blessed that we could spend all that time together. Thank you for all your help your tips and information. I like your truck modification videos but I must admit I like when you’re just traveling enjoying yourself with your friends or family. one of your fellow KZbinrs creative RV Robin?

[@jcambridge46]

From MN and spend at least two weeks a year on the "North Shore". So happy you loved the "North Shore". One suggestion, spend time in Grand Marais, the Jewel of MN! The campground on the Big Lake, in Grand Marais is amazing. If you coming in the middle of the week, ask for the "front row" and enjoy the lake view!

Agreed! First visit is just the primer. Do all the stuff everyone talks about. So much to explore up here.

In Minnesota there is no pointing of the finger. When asked where you live it’s either a mumble or the more favorable “Upnorth”

It's either "the Cities", or up north (meaning anything north of the Cities)

Thanks for this timely video. We are in Minnesota for our annual summer build on our family cabin. We did canal park and park point. I grew up in Cloquet near Jay Cook Park, doing cross country skying. I had not been to split rock yet. Last time I was at Gooseberry Falls was when there was a drought so no water. We are here from Washington state so looking forward to share more of Minnesota with my family.

[@CardelliFamof8]

By the way Boundary Waters Canoe area. If you want a unique camping experience get outfitted and a guide. My dad used to be a guide. It involves canoeing across lakes, portaging across to other lakes, campfires and meals under the stars. Protecting your food from bears. You do need a permit but so rewarding. I need to take my family and take a digital fast.

[@tomanderson9538]

glad you saw duluth and parts of the north shore of mn--ya shoulda gone further north on 61 -- i feel you missed the best parts--I've been going since 1967-it's changed soooooooooooooo much over the years --anyway thanks for your contribution to minne

As a Minnesota I’m so glad you did this video. We used to have a seasonal RV site at Two Harbors just north of Duluth. We worked and it was our weekend getaway. We even often went to the Anytime fitness in Duluth. About a month after you went to Gooseberry Falls there were lots of storms and rain in Minnesota and the Falls actually flooded up to the stairs around the path everything it was wild and crazy water everywhere. Minnesota has so many beautiful Campground, even county campgrounds are wonderful. There’s quiet little towns and there’s always the Lake of the Woods. Too bad you missed a videos of the thousand foot lake freighter ships on the lake and going through the canal in Duluth. It is pretty spectacular. Come back anytime you will love it.

[@paulbjorlin2807]

I wish I would have known you were in the Duluth area, I would have loved to have met you. I grew up and still live in Duluth.

I do hope you return at some point.

For most people in the US, the highlight of July is the 4th. Not in this family. It’s the Tour de France. Has been for over 3 decades. Glad to know there other Arizonans who love the Tour. Road biking is the connection. My husband has been knocked off his bike by a car at the top of Oak Creek (broken collar bone), bumped by a truck on the road around Lake Tahoe, knocked down by wind on the Golden Gate Bridge, and front wheel popped off coming downhill near Piestewa Peak (internal decapitation, TBI, fractured orbit) and he still gets on the bike at 70.

Loved Duluth and want to go back. We stayed in the Boat Basin by the Aerial Bridge (the whole reason I wanted to go to Duluth was to see that bridge) but Duluth had so many great things beyond that.

A big Minnesota welcome! Glad you enjoyed Duluth and Jay Cooke! Split Rock is amazing too! Our family along with normally 10 to 12 other families make an annual camping trip up the North Shore to Grand Marais, MN. The base of the Gunflint Trail that leads to Boundary Waters Canoe Area. If you come back this way I highly recommend. Plus we have some fantastic Rails to Trails bike paths. Betty’s Pies! 😋

Welcome to our beautiful state! Fun to watch you explore our favorite spots. 😊

Love this episode!!! Nice to see you getting so many fun things done!!!

[@johnhone2521]

Glad you made it to our neck of the woods. It seems like all the you tube videos we watch no one want to come to our beautiful state. We were at Jay Cook last week. While hiking I had said, it feels like we are in the movie Hunger Games, too.

You missed the best part of Duluth. You should camp at Lakehead Boat Basin Campground and walk down to Canal Park to watch the 1000 ft Freighters enter the harbor from Lake Superior going under the Duluth Aerial Lift Bridge.

I am a 5th grade teacher and had my students complete a Summer to Remember list before the last day of school. I explained big rocks and small rocks, but the kids’ lists were HYSTERICAL! One parent read their child’s list, which was: 1) Get a lab, 2) Get a German Shepherd, 3) Get a Frenchie, 4) Go to Hawaii, 5) Go to Paris, etc., etc. We were cracking up. I told all the kids who you were and your connection to Pinnacle Peak Elementary (now Pinnacle Peak Preparatory). Have a great summer and thanks for the free, downloadable Summer to Remember list.

No way. Did you ever hear the story of me dressing up as the Blind Pilot and going to PPE. Small world. Your kids made some expensive summer plans!

[@danawhite4658]

@@KeepYourDaydream I did not hear that story at PPE, but I saw it on an episode where you explained how/where you met the Coopers. We’ve met so many great families at PPE, too. Blind pilot……LOL!

A Banana Baseball game! (They take out the boring stuff and add fun, singing, & dancing too the game!)

so cool to watch this episode!!

[@kaceycarter2972]

Thank you for finally getting back to why we fell in love with your family. The adventures!!!! I ordered my Summer to Remember T. Looking forward to wearing it.

Heads-up, some things have broken that I need to fix in AZ :)

love it. I live close to Jay Cooke State Park and was just there checking out the St Louis River, and took the Dogs for a walk. I so wanted to go to the meetup, but I was camping Up North that weekend. Yes we have had tons of rain this spring/summer so the mosquitos have been terrible.
