We continued down the beach, past mysterious things like fuzzy growths on alder stems and a driftwood shelter that would have accommodated a very small person on rather damp soil.

After a little over 2 miles from the start, and having passed all the agate hunters we could see, we decided we'd had enough and headed back, no other trails available further inland along this stretch of shoreline.

While most humans were focused on finding agates, we were more intrigued by the geology/geomorphology at the edge of the beach, where great mounds of clay were exposed, eaten away by erosion and winter storms.

If one were into working with natural clays for pottery, this would be a great place to visit! Though a bit remote for carting your stuff back to civilization.

This is clearly Agate Hunting Land: despite it being a Monday, there were multiple groups of people down the beach looking for special rocks.

We walked by, humans admiring the scenery and huskies exploring the scents and splashes, both in the water and along the edge of the beach where interesting smells wafted.

UP Vacation Day #1!

Today we drove straight north from our cabin to Black River Harbor, where the Black R. empties into Lake Superior. It's just West of the Porcupine Mountain Wilderness where we've done a LOT of hiking over the years, but a place we've never visited until today!

We crossed the river on the historic suspension bridge and then followed the shoreline east for a couple miles or so. It was a perfect weather day, with calm water and occasional fog rolling in off the lake.

The #GreatLakes states and province love our lakes

They are, uh, great

We have our differences

Someone from #ThunderBay might declare #LakeSuperior as, uh, superior to #LakeOntario

But as the old saying goes:

"Me against my brother, me and my brother against my cousin, me and my cousin against the stranger"

So

Speaking for the #NewYork contingent

I thank you, #Michigan contingent, for keeping it real, and firing this idiot who wore a #LakeAmerica shirt:

We will be on a northern, upper peninsula journey (vacation!) in a few weeks. Hopefully some fall colors will be setting in. A stop at the kiddo's school to say HI! (my wife has yet to visit this far north)

Can’t remember if I shared this here before or not, but here it is again. I was at Presque Isle Park in Marquette, Michigan on Lake Superior a couple months ago. The tiny leaves of the quaking aspens caught my eye and held my attention. I sat at a picnic table nearby for a long time, just listening to the water and the leaves fluttering in the breeze. It was the peace my heart and soul needed.

As an aside, the breakwall light is in the background. As teenagers, we’d walk out to it—first on easy cement, then jumping between large rocks with gaps between them. Once, my cousin dropped his camera into a gap. Some guys stopped to help, lying on the rocks and reaching down until one came up with a camera, his arm scratched and bleeding. Except—it wasn’t my cousin’s! It was a similar cheap camera, rusty and beat up from being down there who knows how long. OMG, what were the odds?
