• The Ides of March on Lake Superior

  March 15th brings signs of Spring — Minnesota-style!  On a sunny Saturday on Lake Superior, Duluthians were out in force enjoying the ongoing winter weather.  From flying a kite to biking, from ice fishing to ice photography, Minnesotans know how to make the best of a delayed Spring.

• Weekly Photo Challenge: Abandoned

  Many Minnesotans would suggest the stark icy landscape of Lake Superior this winter is the epitome of abandoned — all warm temperatures have made themselves scarce this season, as we “celebrate” our 65th day of sub-zero temperatures in Duluth today.  (Weather Underground has been kind enough to do a daily sub-zero tally update for those…

• Weekly Photo Challenge: Joy

I showed you some evening scenes from these trails in my last post.  As you can see, the trails are just as beautiful during daylight.  We are fortunate to live in a place with so many natural escapes that…
