When the Keweenaw wind is howling, Lake Superior is a-growling! That's what she was doing recently when Melanie Hakala Rossi was UP near the Keweenaw tip. The Big Lake was tossing and turning like only she can do.

Melanie made a trek out to Horseshoe Harbor, too, which is out past Copper Harbor on the Keweenaw tip. The rock along the shoreline there is massive, as you can see in the 5th photo. That's Melanie's friend, David standing on that shoreline between the two walls of rock. I know I've said this before, but it still always amazes me how different Lake Superior's shoreline can be from one location to another. Both the Lake and her shores are something special.

Somehow, the 5th photo I mentioned here above was omitted, so here it is:

I enjoy seeing pictures of Mother Superior when she is a bit agitated. These are times it is certainly better to look at the waves rather than ride upon them. Great set of pictures. Thanks for sharing.

Totally awesome photos!!

Fantastic Pictures! Thanks for sharing them with us Melanie.

I'll be in Marquette next week to see my contacts at the hospital and convince my bosses that I should have the U.P. back, especially since it's covered out of our Chicago territory which is currently vacant.

Mary, if I get a chance to race to the Keweenaw I'll give you a call.

Have a great, Safe Holiday weekend all!!

Mary says: OH, please do, Uncle Chuck!! Have a good trip UP North!

Beautiful!
