Giving a little bit more....

And so the journey continues....

The follow morning we were greeted with what we thought was rain and needed to roll up a wet tent! Turns out that it was merely intense fog coming in off the lake. The further we got from the lake shore the brighter and bluer the skies became.

I'm fairly certain my son is tired of me stopping to take photos along the way... but how can I possible help but not stop? Some of the scenes were just breath taking...

Wild Lupines....






Old tattered barns.....




Fields so covered in daisies that it looked like Summer Snow....








And an Old rail trellis...




We did also manage to locate a wonderful "vineyard" so to speak. We are much too far north to grow grapes... but stumbled upon a quaint establishment that makes all their products from honey... wonderful, wonderful mead!!!!

Having parted with a significant sum of cash on mead we got back into the car for the last time prior to reaching our true destination.... the Black Bear Sanctuary in MN.



Speaking of which... time to go feed....

the daisy fields are amazing. and the way you used the depth of field on that single flower is really artistically done.
