Ten Degrees and Getting Colder

  Cold Sunrise   That's just the name of the song written by Gordon Lightfoot.  It was actually -13 F when I got up this morning (wind chill -24).  Tucson may have pulled back into the lead!  There's a lot of weighing pros and cons of Colorado vs Arizona by the wood stove.  Not much else to report. I did enjoy a few games of pool and a beer with my brother this week.  We don't get together very often, so it's good to try to keep the lines of communication open, especially with my mother celebrating her 86th birthday next month.  He lives in Milwaukee and just started semi-retirement.  Our opposing politics and lifestyles keep things very casual and surface-level.  Not that there's anything wrong with that.   It's important to find common ground.  He and his wife have started going to concerts and recently saw the Steve Miller Band.  Music is one of our common interests.      

Upper Peninsula: Downtime on Lake Michigan

From August 2021

Callie and I stayed three days at Little Bay du Noc campground.  I didn't do a whole lot:  walking the several campground loops and trails, reading by the fire, and enjoying the quiet mid-week solitude.  There were some sites with a lakeview but they came with neighbors and sometimes contractor generators. We were happy where we were.


By the end of our stay, I was ready to move on. It was time to move on to the shores of Otchipwe-kitchi-gami, (Ojibwe for the Big Sea) or Lake Superior.
