July 5th and 6th

We drove 350 miles across the top of Lake Superior to Sleeping Giant Provincial Park on Saturday. We saw our first moose of the trip today. She was across a pond and we were traveling at 50 miles an hour... so no picture! The name Sleeping Giant describes a group of mountains that look like a giant sleeping on his back.

The campground was packed on Saturday(we think the entire population of Thunder Bay,Ontario was there!) Most everyone left Sunday and it was a kinder and gentler place!
We hiked the Middleburn Trail to Findlay Beach and saw a porcupine on the way. There are lots of deer here too.

The campground that we stayed in was on Marie Louse Lake. Marie Louise was Mark's moms name. What a coincidence!

Were you tempted to leave a small sign behind that said: aka Meemaw Lake?
Beautiful pics.

Is that a chipmunk that you are feeding?? Don't you know that you are condemning him to DEATH?!?

The only picture of both of you was after the porcupine on the trail to Findlay Beach. Did he take it?
