The "Chief" and his catch.


Some fine eating ahead.


A week ago this guy was fishing in the Gulf of Mexico in 80+ degree weather.


I always love the sunsets on the bay.



Great day of fishing on Chequamegon Bay. For the last few years the bay has been called the "dead sea". This year has been different. This year everyone has been catching fish.

Not much happening on the bay.

There is always something to photograph in the hot pond. These ducks and geese (or others) are here in the hot pond year around.

Lunar Eclipse. March 03, 2007

Receding lunar eclipse.


Fellow eclipse watchers.

MichiganTech. Concrete Canoe racing team.

Cheguamegon Bay hot pond. You never know what you'll see. Today it was the MichiganTech Civil Engineering Department's Concrete Canoe.

The "team" was in the hot pond training for an upcoming race. The team had driven over from Houghton MI to train because "there is always open water here". I got a chance to "inspect" the boat and it looked quite sea worthy.

I'm told it weighs in at around 175 lbs and is 19 feet long. It appeared to be quite quick as it manuevered the course. Portages looked like they might require some extra effort.

I'm told even if it was filled with water it would float. A concrete boat weighing 175 lbs would float. OK! I guess that's why I'm not an engineer. I would have bet otherwise.

It was cold and windy on the bay today but it didn't seem to discourage this crowd. Good luck in your up coming race. Thanks to the team for taking the time to explain your unusual craft and activities.

FINALLY! A winter snow storm. 15 to 18" in town.

Drift / plowed snow at Woods Rexall.

In response to a posted comment (question) below.

Yes the roads are closed or are closing. Windy and drifting snow.


US Hwy.2 and Sanborn Ave.


Main Street and Ellis Ave.


It's starting to snow.


AND no the Cardinals are not frozen. At least they weren't this A.M. at 6:30.



I have my own question. Ryan and Dana (The Honeymooners) are you ready to come home from the nice WARM weather in Florida?

Four more of the 1300 photos I took.

Proud dad of the bride.


Good job D & D Ryan is a lucky guy. P.S. So isn't Unk.

For Dianne in Georgia. Grand children.

A note: I took nearly 1300 photos on the day of the wedding Digital photography is great! Many are of people and relations I don't know. I have consolidated ALL of the unedited photos on a single CD/DVD. I will wait until Ryan and Dana are back to decide what to do with them.

If you were at the wedding and have not seen photos you might expect to see on this website It doesn't mean they are not in the original 1300. All of the photos I took are "candid" shots as the "official photographer" was getting the wedding photos. She had the hard job that day. I had fun.

For those relatives on either side who missed the wedding I would guess copies of the CD will be "available" once Ryan and Dana are back. For those who got a "preview" copy please feel free to copy the CD and pass it on.
