Betcha didn't know that pasties grow naturally here in northern Michigan and Wisconsin! They're harvested when fully grown to be baked and sold to tourists as a local staple. 😉

Thinking of the UP of Michigan, and the south shore of Lake Superior

I took this on Ontonagon Beach last year

Along the shore of Lake Superior, and a bitter wond chill, I activated Eagle Harbor and Lac la Belle Harbor in the UP of Michigan. Thanks to all those who caught my call. 73 #amateurradio #hamradio #pota #upmichigan

I visited the town I was born in this weekend, which in it's copper mining heyday had about 3,000 people, but now is down to around 400.

I wandered for a couple hours taking pictures. I think this one was my favorite
