Deb Simons and her hubby Ron, have a new occupation this summer, tour guides for family visits. Her son and his family were here with them at Calumet Waterworks Park, locally known as Bucky’s and Deb had a keen eye for some interesting beach décor around them. It’s actually pretty neat to see the large logs and trees that have washed ashore under the power of Lake Superior. And of course there are always rocks to peruse in the hopes of finding some prized agates. This is a great place to unwind and do what you like to do best, the choice is yours. You can always find a spot to gather with the family and enjoy some time together by the Big Lake.

It sure looks like they picked the perfect day to spend there...my favorite shot is the one that Deb said she loved, too – that beautiful sunset through the trees photo. The shadows, the sun glowing, the white birch trees framing the scene. Yep, this one is canvas worthy for sure!

Deb’s photos end with a sunset, but our video today from Steve Brimm begins the day with a sunrise in Copper Harbor. Turn up your volume to hear the ‘peace and quiet’ of the morning!

Mary, you used all my favorites. You maybe
saw what I saw? It's just simple beauty. I
also loved the video I did of the log just
rolling on the water, trying to get to the
beach. It was mesmerizing to watch. Thanks
fire sharing these. Cool video. too.
Totally peaceful.

Deb, you’ve been busy lately taking nice pix.
Thanks for the adventure.
Nice video too.


By Donna (Donna) on Thursday, August 3, 2023 - 10:58 am:

These are just gorgeous, Deb! I love the sun
setting one too!


By Alex "UP-Goldwinger" (Alex) on Thursday, August 3, 2023 - 12:03 pm:

I just noticed that the fifth pic looks like the
Ten Commandments stone tablets.


By D. A. (Midwested) on Thursday, August 3, 2023 - 02:18 pm:

Those were some pretty artistic waves...
washing up that cairn and all, LOL.

Last time I was at Bucky's I had trouble walking back up the stairs. It was quite the work out.


By D. A. (Midwested) on Thursday, August 3, 2023 - 02:30 pm:

Maybe Bucky's Commandments, Alex?


By Deb S. (Usedtobeayooper) on Thursday, August 3, 2023 - 03:44 pm:

Alex, I thought the exact same thing about
those tablets when I took that picture.
Great minds.


By Deb S. (Usedtobeayooper) on Thursday, August 3, 2023 - 03:49 pm:

And D.A., those steps are the worst. We
usually just walk up a path. Not a lot
better. I'll soon need a pulley.


By D. A. (Midwested) on Thursday, August 3, 2023 - 05:02 pm:

The only thing harder was the Chutes & Ladders stairs


By Mary Drew at Pasty Central (Mdrew) on Friday, August 4, 2023 - 04:39 pm:

Deb S. and Alex...I thought those looked like the Ten Commandments, too! :-)

Also, Deb...I didn't see your video of the log rolling on the water. You uploaded a photo of the log and titled it "Just rolling in the water. So Cool.", but I didn't see any videos on that post. Otherwise I'd have asked to make it public for sharing here!

Mary, maybe I didn't post that or
accidentally deleted it. I hope not. I'll
have to look. It was so cool.
