We rented a houseboat and trolled the waters of Voyageurs National Park. Just the 3 of us and the woods.
We towed a motor boat at the back of the houseboat and took it out to explore the park. There are no roads or bridges – you can only get around by water.

Breakfast on a houseboat. The ladder in the background leads to the “penthouse” bedroom. It has room for a double mattress and the ceiling is about 4 feet high.

Securing the motorboat to the back of the houseboat is tricky.

Alice, Lynsey, Barry, & Fred visit the Peace Garden & Roberts Bird Sanctuary at Lake Harriet. All of us met taking photography classes taught by Xavier Tavera at the UMN. This was our first excursion that was NOT a class assignment – we just got together to visit and take photos as the spirit moved. It was great to hang out while drifting about looking for photographic inspiration. Photo sets appear in the order in which I received them!

I’ve been up and down the California coast many times and the views always thrill me whether winding through rolling green foothills or teetering on the edge of a cliff plunging into the ocean. On our last trip we started in La Jolla and drove through Big Sur with a stop in Cambria. With the ever changing weather and light, the views are always mesmerizing. Here are some of them.

We saw otters drifting in the surf and whale spouts in the distance, but these were too far away to photograph. Seals and pelicans are so used to being around tourists it was easy to get some close-ups.

When looking at satellite photos of Minnesota, Roman noticed large swaths of wilderness in the northern part of the state. So, Friday morning the four of us left cold, drizzly St. Paul for the north shore of Lake Superior and its promise for a wilderness experience. Years ago Rocky, Roman, and I went to Berklee together – kindred spirits coming of age in jazz and baseball infused Boston when Newbury Street was still a student ghetto. Our friendship is eternal, what more can I say. Roman is Parisian and he and his wife Bibi are in the states for a vacation. Bibi is wonderful and the four of us have great adventures, dramatic conversations, and drink a lot of French wine.
