Same Mosquito Chapel Beach as posted a few days back, but a few years later and in very different conditions. Picture taken with Canon 350D, EF-S 18-55mm lens @18mm, f/9, 1/200 sec, ISO 100
The title of this one should be something like “stay off the damn water.” Picture taken from Mosquito Chapel Beach in Pictured Rocks which is about 8 miles from where we started the trip. There was some lightning and we actually did have to stay off the water for a… Continue reading
A special picture from an abandoned Skillagalee Island (aka Ile aux Galets) – a land of bird carnage and feces. There’s the dilapidated lighthouse, one dead tree, 3000 birds and at one moment three silly kayakers on this island. There’s really no reason you’d ever need to visit, so here’s a… Continue reading
A shot from one of the little islands very near the start of our trip on Lake Superior Provincial Park. I don’t know the names of any of the islands out there, or anything about them other than I like the fog rolling over them but apparently I wasn’t motivated… Continue reading

Having successfully made it through the night without becoming human popsicles, we headed to the general store and ranger station. The store had a surprisingly large array of camping gear. The ranger station had a nice fire going, which would have been nice to sit by, but there was hiking… Continue reading
Day three of the Smoky Mountains adventure was back to hiking waterfalls, and first on the list was Laurel Falls. This had to be the most popular falls because it was a paved trail (in rather poor condition) up to the falls. Like the Clingmans Dome trail, I think this… Continue reading
