FOTO FRIDAY: WATER

FOTO FRIDAY this week is "water" since we've had so much of it falling from the sky. 
This rainwater specifically affected our not canoeing the Root River in Lanesboro, Minnesota for our traditional anniversary date but we still will be able to take our bike ride part. 



Notice the force and color of the dam's waterfall and rain runoff into the Root River. Those are mighty turbulent waters. 

Colleen shares her pic of a whirlpool. Those currents can strong and be dangerous.





And what's better leader training for campouts than being prepared for a rainy campout with the girls. Friend Jennifer Girl Scout leader extraordinaire got experience doing a campfire in the rain. She has titled her pic "Fire & Water" and states - it is possible to start and maintain a campfire and cook Dutch Oven Chicken Pot Pie in the rain! Thank you TOC II Training! 
 Notice the standing/running water in our fire ring...

Cheryl didn't leave the water behind as HaRVey forged northward for their next stop. Look what was greeting her in Ham Lake north of the Twin Cities. 


OK try fishing at the end of this pier/ did you just tell the grandchildren to go out and swing?

  1. I most definitely do NOT want to talk about water right now. I guess I should be thankful it's not falling from the sky the morning we pack up our wet soggy belongings...but it's small thanks. Oh well, I guess it's good for the farmers and the crops...but I'm getting a bit tired of it. Those deserts in Arizona are looking better and better to me lately.
