Favorite Place

My favorite place is nothing that one might expect, it is what I think to be one of the most peace full places if not the most peace full place that I have ever been. This place is not too far from where I live in Minnetonka Minnesota, this place is called Pineknot Cabin. This cabin is just located in between Tofte and Lutsen Minnesota, just about thirty minutes south of Canada on the famous highway 61 often sang about by Bob Dylan and in the title of his album "Highway 61 Revisited".
Pineknot Cabin is this old classic 1920's log cabin that is located on a 40 foot rock cliff that overlooks Lake Superior, this is a true log cabin all walls including the inner walls between the rooms are made of completely logs and no nails can be found. I first went up to Pineknot about a year ago on a family trip to the north shore and I fell in love with it. I was lucky enough to be able to go back last spring break with four other friends of mine. We where able to stay for five nights and snowboard at Lutsen for four days. All of my friends loved the cabin so much that not only did we name the moose head that hung on the wall Sir Buckington, we also left a personalized note to ourselves in his antlers for when we go back. We are currently planning another trip this upcoming spring break with more people to enjoy to enjoy the amazing Pineknot Cabin with us.
