Last year, Michelle and I squeezed a quick trip to Isle Royale National Park out of weekend - full gallery here. We took the ferry to the island, hiked to a camping pad by the lake, slept well, and hiked back to the dock the next morning. We got soaked on the first day - it was raining the whole morning on the ferry ride and our path was soaked. But it cleared up in the afternoon and the second day was beautiful.

Last November, Michelle, Banjo, and I took a walk at Snelling State Park in the metro area ... full gallery here.

Celebrating New Years, last year at the Harders - full gallery here.
