No sé si se puede llegar al Nirvana, pero en el Casco Antiguo de Vitoria-Gasteiz existen estructuras que, sin necesidad de meditación, ni de buscar la liberación de los deseos, te permiten alcanzar un nivel superior sin ningún esfuerzo.

The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down

Of the big lake they called 'gitche gumee'

The lake, it is said, never gives up her dead

When the skies of November turn gloomy.

I have been fascinated by the tales of Lake Superior for years since I first heard the Gordon Lightfoot song about the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. So we visited the pictured rocks and took a boat trip on the lake. I do have to add I would NEVER take a boat trip on Lake Superior in November.

 

Thank you for your visit I hope you enjoyed it. :-)

  

Here is the sequel to my prior picture Frozen in time. You can see the old boat in the left of the frame.

 

There is an old pier that goes out into the lake where I could get this vantage point.

L'isola dei Pescatori, conosciuta anche come Superiore (in dialetto locale Isola di Pescador), è l'unica dell'arcipelago delle Borromee nel Lago Maggiore (comune di Stresa) ad essere stabilmente abitata.

 

Larga 100 metri per 350 di lunghezza, ospita un piccolo borgo, dalle caratteristiche case a più piani (con lunghi balconi per essiccare il pesce), con una piazzetta, caratteristici vicoli stretti, il lungolago e la via principale per permettere gli spostamenti rigorosamente a piedi dei 57 abitanti che vivono di pesca e turismo.

 

Abitata da almeno 700 anni l'isola dispone di una parrocchia dedicata a san Vittore e un belvedere alberato dal lato opposto.

 

D'estate gode di una grande affluenza di visitatori che passeggiano nei vicoli e comprano oggetti di artigianato locale nel piccolo e caratteristico mercatino. Famosa a Ferragosto è la processione della statua del santo protettore dell'arcipelago su una barca intorno alle isole, circondata da numerosi natanti di turisti e di abitanti della zona

Surfing in Minnesota? Oh, heck yah!

 

At a spot on Lake Superior called Stoney Point, you'll find an adventurous group surfing in the spring, summer, fall and even in the winter when it's 20 below zero (Fahrenheit). Basically, if there are waves, they'll be out there in their wet suits catching one of them.

 

Stoney Point is accessible from the North Shore Scenic Drive between Duluth and Two Harbors, Minnesota.

The Tele Top is just off the old harbor in Nuuk and offers fantastic 360 degrees view to Nuuk and the surroundings.

The small town of Superior, AZ is about 60 miles east of Phoenix. It was founded early in the last century as a result of huge nearby mining operations. Mining has reduced and the town has struggled as a result. These church buildings have changed hands a number of times.

 

Happy Monochrome Monday!

My final posting from our quick trip "Up North" last weekend.

It was a moody mix of sunshine, wind and clouds most of the day, but enjoyed the challenge of it!

 

Never a dull moment on the big lake!

"Happy Easter to all my flickr friends and cousins! :)

At the crack of dawn, the night turns to day on the windy shores of Lake Superior; a colorful sky ensues. After a hectic and sleepless night, this was a nice sign of things to come, I suppose.

I found a new sunrise location on Lake Superior, but it took some unexpected effort. It is about a .75 mile trail with a decent amount of steps, but nothing that difficult. As I was hiking something a bit unexpected happened, my legs started to cramp up, but not a little bit, but a lot. They were in so much pain that I eventually had to stop walking altogether until the pain subsided enough to move on. All that being said, I am very thankful that I did not get hurt and that God was gracious to me by allowing me to complete the hike and witness a very beautiful sunrise! I am still learning my limits as a disabled photographer, but I am so thankful for the grace of God in my life and His strength that is perfected in my weakness!

It feels special when any Great Lake is as calm as glass. When it is Superior, it is magical. A calm settled on Old Woman Bay in the Lake Superior Provincial Park this evening, May, 2026. We needed it as it was a long day on the road.

I had some time image posting this morning while having coffee and started typing a caption for this image when my thoughts carried on too long for the space of a caption so I created and afterward to yesterday's Photo of the week.
