I could use this day of sitting inside doing nothing but watching rain

I love finding these things. Old school physical data. You'd think they'd have a unique ID assigned to them, but no. It's on a map somewhere I guess. Often they have the name of the surveyor. On this one I think GJS is his initials.

Fungus on a tree in Glacial Lakes State Park. Why isn't there a TMBG song about fungus? "Am I alive or am I dead? Join the algae and be lichen instead?"

Closest I got was Interstate State Park, Wisconsin side, May 22, 2025

I like to find those spots where the rising sun is touching the morning dew just before it evaporates, and then I foolishly think I'll be able to capture all that glory on camera. This is the latest attempt.

I'm so glad I duct taped my camera together again after that Mille Lacs Kathio lookout tower fiasco the day before

Bee: What are THEY doing here?
Wasp: Good question!
Flies: Hey, it's windy! We'd much rather be on shit

Glacial Lakes State Park also turns out to be a great park. These are fun pics in the sun, but trails are in woods and wetlands as well as rolling open hills. Up & down climbs provided by glaciers shoving dirt around

Next day of my trip I went to Glacial Lakes Minnesota State Park which I never heard of before. And I found a self titled album cover for my 90's band Esker Glacial Erratic

Here's a zoom* on Mille Lacs Lake. Could be Lake Superior except you can just see the other side. * just digital zoom because I had not taped my camera back together yet, I suppose I could have switched lenses but I did not think of that

Yes, Mille Lacs seems so far up there, but it's only 2hrs from the Cities. Unless someone is moving A HOUSE that day!

So Mille Lacs Kathio State Park has some nice trails with lots of route options. Parts of the park are dead tree groups. I guess the land floods, killing the trees that stay standing?

My excuse for chickening out partway up is the chickenwire, only thing between you & death, snagged my camera, ripped off back of it which fluttered down in the wind to stairs below & I said NOPE. (repaired camera with duct tape later)

Finally home, looking at photos from my cameras, how about a mushroom? Mille Lacs Kathio Minnesota State Park, nice trails in woods with a few ups & downs

Just a man spending some quality time with his groin muscles

Before the game I walked around the field & they had a field inside the field

Saints won! And the light in St. Paul is fantastic.

Saints 6 Mets 4
