The sun was about to set when I left work yesterday. There was a pinkish hue in the skyline. I had to take a few minutes before heading home to capture these huge chunks of ice in the harbor. They look like giant lily pads.
Ice, Ice Baby
Minus 16F
Following the long holiday break, the kids are back to school. Mike and I are back to work and the temperatures are back to below zero. It was a cold start to the day for everyone, but especially for this tugboat captain breaking ice in the Duluth Harbor just after sunrise this morning.
Lester Park
When the final days of September bring warm, sunny days you have to forget about chores and errands and take advantage of the outdoors. That’s exactly what we did last Sunday when we hiked through Lester Park.
At the end of our journey we came across an area called “The Deeps”. Teenagers are often found here on hot summer days jumping off a peak high above a pool of water in the Amity Creek below. Although summer had past, the warm temperatures attracted a number of kids jumping into “The Deeps”. You have to look carefully in the upper left corner of the first image below. You can follow the path of this jumper from the top of the cliff down into the water. I sure hope my kids never try this.
