This year marked me turning 40 and my 30th consecutive year going to BW/Q.  The past 10 years since I moved back to MN I have been fortunate enough to go 3-5 times a summer.  Usually short 4 day weekend trips but makes the summer last longer.

The first ever trip was a family trip with my parents, brother and 2 sisters.  It was a great trip but a time prior to pumping water.  On the way out we saw a lady shaving her legs in the lake that we had been drinking from.  It was enough for my one sister, and she has not been back.  The rest of them family have made several other trips together and individually.
