Ease on up, ease on up, the banks...

After finally escaping the mighty grasp of Ontonagon, where apparently once upon a long time ago a small girl accidentally dropped her bowl in the river, and subsequently named the town. As of this time, we can neither confirm nor deny the validity of that story, instead we moseyed on down the shore in search of new scenery and stories...

Little did we know once again we would let our sea legs out with an additional weather day in Misery Bay (appropriately named). A few miles passed fourteen mile point, this monstrosity of a bay is renowned for trapping travelers due to its large exposed shore to westerly/ Northwesterly/ North/ North Easterly winds... This of course, we learned through experience, which by now we have come to appreciate as the best educator.

Here we are again, hanging out in a new place, tall grass, more quartzite than you know what to due with, some stupendious sun and wild wind. Through this experience we furthered our skills working with cache lake pan breads and deletable oats of instant persuasion.

Once the small craft advisory had been lifted we made our break, heading north east up the coast in search of the mighty Keeweenaw and its land of vitally enriching air. The wind was variable and the shoreline dynamic. Through the various rock formations and monstrous mansions, winding waterfalls allowed that precious fresh to take that final plummet into Lake Superior's encompassing grasp. Once in a great while, after copious amounts of rain, you may encounter a few rivulets dropping into the Lake around the Apostles, but if viewing cascades of white into azure depths is your thing, then this stretch of shoreline may be for you. Especially if you are into mansions that appear out of nowhere and a random smokestack reaching to the heavens for no real apparent reason- the land, the locale it all has a story. One, if we were to guess has to do with an abandoned industry and now a realization of how much of a lure the Lake has for families to have a place to call home upon its' banks.
