Great Lakes, Great FUN

At Red Cliff Indian Reservation we went out to see what they called sea caves. It was a Aww Wow experience..
The shores of Lake Superior.
236” of snow each winter season on Lake Superior.  The top of this mail box is dotted with reflectors so the snow plow won't run over it.
Here we are walking the shoreline of L.S.  I found smooth rocks that have been rolled around forever and sea glass from broken bottles from sunken ships.  What a beautiful place!
No words needed!
Here, I'm returning an urn I found while fishing.  The water is so incredibly clear you can see down forever.  We were fishing and as always I looked in the water to see what I could see.  Lying  in the sand was this vase? Jar? Not sure until I sweet-talked Ken into diving down and getting it.  This is what it was... I named him Superior...
Pretty wired to find something like this huh?  Call me wired but I felt it was an honor to find and a wonderful feeling to return...
After awhile this school of smallies wanted something tiny. Still caught 'em.
Lake Huron smallie!
Lake Huron.  Now we can say we have both caught smallmouth bass in all the Great Lakes!
