I spent most of the summer outside across the North America this year, and took my new digital camera with me. The pictures that follow are from canoeing in Northern Minnesota and Ontario, and from the Front Range in Colorado. Enjoy!

It started out with a cold and rainy north wind out of Canada


We ventured into Tatty Patty territory, invading Canada by way of Cache Bay


Saw some ancient Ojibwe rock paintings


The Indians called this the "Way of the thunderbox". I called it the "path to the shitter"

2nd campsite, the clouds finally clear


It got sunny, and warm

3rd morning, no bears got into our food


Weather got warmer


A day at the office


Interesting rockfall


Beavers were here

Day 4: Canada left, US right


Das Boot





Creepy forest on the Endor-like island of 4th night, the air hummed with mosquitoes louder than a high tension power line.

Breakfast


Livingroom table


Sunset on the water

The drive out, saw this fella


Rainbow over taconite silos


Thought about Genesis Skye for some reason


This one's for Dylan fans


The TC's

Rocky Mountain High

Beautiful!

Thanks Gians, it means a lot coming from a photog. I've come to think that we've got our share of shut-ins at the X and thought they'd appreciate a little bit of scenery.

Nice pictures, Floof! Thanks for sharing.
