Last June (2003) I was in Two Harbors, Minnesota. It was VERY cold and windy on the edge of Lake Superior. There was a pro-am bicycle race that I wanted my friend, who used to preside over the national org. that sent cyclists to the Olympics and Worlds, to take some pics of for possible publication. He said I should do it myself so, I went up. While there I saw an old friend that we (Florida Cycling Federation) took to Dominican Rep. for an internationl race back in 1986. Anyway, my MN friend had his digital camera and I used it to take a few pics. Thank goodness I did because my film wasn’t loaded properly and I lost a roll of film. My light meter wasn’t working properly and the images have color and tonal problems. What a bad trip it was for the main thing I wanted to do.
Anyway, we spent two days with the race since it was in the upper part of the state where he has a family cabin. We stayed there the remaining time. I vividly remember our canoe trip across the lake, including getting covered with ticks on our hike to see a smaller lake. There are lakes, large and small, everywhere.
The mining and logging trains used run throughout the area but today, there’s only a few tracks in use. The building shown is a museum, store, and train station. It was overcast that day. Sorry.
