Along Lake Superior
Here is a view of an arch formation in Tettegouche State Park. Sunday June 24th - Two Harbors, MN
I thought I was going to enter an update from the motel where our workshop was held after we wrapped up. But for some reason the internet connection has been challenging since I arrived in Minnesota.
What a great week here in Minnesota. Wish I had planned on another week here.
Can’t even begin to recap all the fun things I’ve seen, done, and learned.
The weather the first days here was cool (almost nippy at times) and windy. The last two days have been almost hot by comparison.
I drove down to Duluth after we finished and it was HOT. I felt like I was in a big city after having been here along the North Shore where towns are few and far between and the population is often in the hundreds or low thousands!
We had fog last night and this morning and it made for some interesting photographic opportunities. I haven’t had much time to review my shots.
I hope tomorrow will be a laid back day. I’m planning on a little more sleep tonight and it will be a relatively short drive
Rocky shoreline
This is a closeup of the rocky shoreline at Tettegouche State Park. I was fascinated by the rocky beaches. tomorrow - about 250 miles if I recall my numbers correctly. I’ve already reattached the bicycle rack (and bicycle) to the rear of the Jeep, put up the grill and stored the sewer hose. I thought about driving a little north around sunrise for some early morning shots along the cliffs, but I’m just too exhausted.
So for now I’ll just share a couple of images from the past few days. More detailed stories will be forthcoming when things are less hectic and I’m a little more rested.
Hopefully I’ll be able to connect to the blog and upload this when I go over by the office where I can get a signal here in the campground.
Monday June 25th - Northern Wisconsin
Perhaps the 3rd time will be the charm. As you can see from the beginning of this entry I tried early in the afternoon and then last night to make a journal entry. Obviously I wasn’t able to connect and upload.
I had a short drive today - about 200 miles and arrived at my campground about 4:30. I knew it was supposed to have wireless. I also expected to have laundry
Palisade Head
This is Palisade Head. Like Split Rock Lighthouse, this is one of the most photographed areas along the North Shore of Lake Superior. The cliffs are over 100 feet above Lake Superior.
I had every intention to go back either Sunday or Monday morning to get this with the early morning light on the cliffside. But I didn't make it. I think it was likely both mornings were foggy and I may have seen nothing at all. facilities. Since I arrived early and had no sightseeing planned this evening I was going to wash a few things and get the blog updated.
Well I don’t have cell coverage here - no big deal, and they are renovating the laundry area so I can’t do that (can you tell how disappointed I am in that!!!). But I couldn’t get websites to come up either. I was able to check email, but no websites would load.
After closing out Explorer a few times, it appears to be working.
IF it does continue to work, this entry and a couple of photos from the past few days will be uploaded.
Again, thanks for checking in with me as I explore the roads less traveled. Hope you enjoy the latest images.
