Birch and lichen, moss and stone.  Leaves and puddles and mushrooms.

We spent the day we arrived running in the rain and wind.  Eating french fries, fish 'n chips, and wild rice soup.  Shopping for antique treasures.  Lounging and swimming, then running through the rain some more for pizza and beers.

The next day, after trying to squeeze in visits to more of our favorite places, the kid fell asleep, we drove to the highest point, and I got to steal a few minutes with my camera.  Alone.  In all this beauty.  

I can't wait to take the kid here and let him explore like a hunter in a forest.  But right then, it was nice to just be me with my camera.  For all of 30 minutes.  

It did me good.
