Fishless and done for the day

This guy was done for the day, turning his back on the lake and on the fish who’d already ignored him for hours.

Catch of the Day

The Minnesotans where we stayed told us many times that the lake was unusually smooth, so I guess it was. But I guess these fishermen (fisherpersons?) were happy about it.

(Also, that skinny strip of land in the background is Wisconsin. I knew you were wondering.)

Basic as a breath

A tidy white building that’s part of the compound at the Two Harbors lighthouse. Currently it serves as the place where the cashier tried to charge us an entry fee of -$50,000, but prior to that fiscal snafu, it was the place that housed the apparatus that ran the foghorn (which is still there, on the higher part of the building).

I am becoming more and more convinced that “architectural antiques” is just a fancy way to say “junk.”
