Being out on the waters of Lake Superior on a warm Sunday summer day would feel colder, but I’m not sure I would trust having someone on the paddle board with me because if they wiggled too much, I probably would fall off and the frigid waters would be too refreshing for me.

On a nice summer Saturday afternoon, I imagine there are many water activities happening, including some sailing on Lake Superior between Bayfield and Madeline Island.

At the end of the work week, many are tired and welcome the weekend. This old McCormick-Deering tractor definitely looks worn out and tired from too many working years. And no push button start for this tractor, but instead needed some hand-cranking to start this engine.

The higher elevation gives you a different view of Lake Superior than when at the water level at the beach, but you would not want to wander much farther as there is a very sharp cliff just a few yards away.

The summer lilies comes in different sizes and range of colors.

After playing catch on a summer afternoon, a rest break is needed before this dog is ready for more fun.

There has been a turkey wandering in my yard for days and he stays for several hours at a time, mainly under my bird feeders. Hopefully he hasn’t convince the grosbeaks to throw extra seeds down from the feeders so that the turkey is eating wood ticks and other bugs and not my bird seed.

By afternoon, the dew point dropped and the temperature was cooler so it was a great day for outdoor activities like hiking, kayaking or a cruise on the river.
Sunday Adventure
After a display of aurora borealis during the night, some clouds rolled in during the pre-dawn hours to allow a colorful sunrise over Lake Superior. The green reflected on the water from the northern lights was replaced by pink when morning arrived.
From Green to Pink
On a day with temperatures over 90, even the critters need to rest in the shade as they try to stay cool during the hot temperatures.
