Beautiful sky in Madison last night. Almost makes up for the cloud cover during the Perseid meteor shower a few nights ago.
Hiking the Fallison Lake trail
A couple of views from the Fallison Lake nature trail, one of the nicest in the Northern Highland State Forest.
Just a Daisy
Because sometimes, less is more.
Like being in a cathedral
I can often feel more spiritual and closer to God while out in nature, than in church. My time under these tall pine trees (while hiking in northern Wisconsin) is a prime example of that.
Immature bald eagle
My best wildlife sighting last week. I almost didn’t notice it. On an overcast day, the juvenile’s camouflage is very effective.
Scenic vistas on the Bearskin
As was the case the past few years, my favorite part of vacationing in northern Wisconsin last week, was biking the Bearskin State Trail.
Last glimpse of the sun
I spent last week camping in Wisconsin’s Northern Highland State Forest. This was the sunset view at my campsite on Trout Lake.
A summer favorite
One of my favorite summer flowers, Bee balm.
New Orpheum sign
Finally got a chance to see the new Orpheum Theater sign (a replica of the original from the 1920’s) — it looks great! I need to stop by at night sometime when it’s lit up.
