Duluth, Minnesota: Part 2



The wild and wonderful Willard Munger State Trail

We've returned from Duluth, Minnesota: Part Three, a weekend filled with Inline Marathons along the North Shore, (my husband, not me) hiking at Gooseberry Falls, reveling in Canal Park, (old people style) and eating at some of Minnesota's best restaurants: The Rustic Inn, OMC Smokehouse, Burrito Union, Corktown Deli, Sammy's Pizza, and Va Bene. Yum! I heard ominous signs of fall, with brittle leaves rustling over the sidewalk. But the winds were warm, toasty even. For the second time this year, we experienced above average temperatures up-North. 

But before I can post part three, I need to post part two. Follow our feet...

Did you forget something?

Fabulous, Sharon. I join several others in commenting that the driftwood are my favorite photos! And of course, your hubby in a peaceful pose. We can all use more of those moments these days. Thanks for linking to Mosaic Monday!

Your photography is very inspiring. I like the attention to detail, especially in the nailed tree. Also like the different angles in your composition.

Lea said...

Beautiful photos! I especially like the driftwood!
Thanks for your visit to my blog. In your comment you mention a verse you did not know was in the Bible. If you are referring to "This is the day that the Lord has made" it is Psalm 118:24
Hope you are having a great week!
