| Jim at Lake Itasca |
Checked into cabin 11 Sunday afternoon then headed down the wooden staircase to Lake Itasca for our stroll up the Dr. Robert’s trail, to the Old Timer’s cabin. Several women were taking photos, other hikers came and went, all laughing, enjoying themselves. '"Where are you from? " was the standard refrain. We weren't in the city any more.
Took a photo of the carved wooden chair pretending Molly’s with us then headed back down the trail to the deck over Lake Itasca. We sat down on one of the wooden seats for a quiet spell, listening to the the lake water lap gently against the decking pylons, admiring the wild rice and cattails near the shore. The sun was lowering in the sky, twilight coming on, the end of a lovely day.

Hey Carol,
ReplyDeleteHow was your return to Itasca?! Missed you again this year. My singings were on October 2nd and 3rd. Colors were a little early this year and half the leaves were off by the time I got up there on the 26th of September. We stayed until the 7th as the weather was summer like with highs in the mid 70's. Hope you had a great time. Maybe next year :)

Hi Dana
ReplyDeleteMother Nature got it a tad turned around, we had the cool weather, down to 40 degrees one night! And that's mid-September. 'Sure you got some great photos! This is my first year with a digital camera so it was sooooo much easier. I wish you could give a photo workshop next fall!
