Eight years ago we had an aerial view of the town where we live, Eagle River, Michigan.

good morning

Good morning again! Nice shot of Eagle River!

The "Eagle Loop" is one of my favorite part of the U.P's snowmobile trail system!

Good morning! Another fine day. Please see my Sunday's What's UP 9:29 post. Thanks again to all who replied.

HAPPY BELATED 60TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY TO NORMA AND RUDY AITTAMA! We celebrated at the Finnish Center this past Saturday, a good time was had by all!

We'll do it again Aunt & Unc on your 70th!

I love this view. Makes you dream of a cabin near the lake.

WHERE'S MY BRIDGE!

is the bridge cam down, or is it on my end?

BTW..that is a great photo of Eagle River. That area up there is some of the most scenic around.

Hey Deb ... we must have posted within seconds of each other this morning :) I was going to write some more words, but had that feeling that someone else was typing at the same time, so I slammed it in quick :)

OK--- I'll bite--- What is that in the upper left of the pic?

Hey Dave, I had already had a post in and it was AFTER Charlie posted too, but for some reason it disappeared again. Anyway, congrats. I guess I should have kept it short.

Built a six foot by six foot by two feet deep sandbox for the Ozanich boys, now we need some Lake Superior sand to fill it. Anyone coming down with some in their shoes feel free to shake the sand out of your shoes at my grandkids house. Little project cost over $200 including the sand which we haven't got yet. Berkley is lacking in lake sand.

reflection from the window ???

Hey Mikie, every time we built a sandbox we filled it with Lake Superior sand. It took a lot of trips out here and different people hauling it, but we always got it done. We still have a garbage can full of the stuff. Nothing like it. Well, the dunes on Lake Michigan were just as nice I guess.

It looks like the underside of the Left wing of the airplane. Am I right?
Plus great aerial shot. The majesty of the Keweenaw never gets old. Keep those pics coming. My tired eyes are in need of more pastoral sights.

The bridge cam has been down for a few days. I think it may have to do with the server changeover, etc.

Trb0013, from the first time I saw that picture, I assumed that it is the wing of the airplane, so I think you are right. I really like that picture, where you can see the varying water depths with the crystal clear water!

It occurred to me that if the lumber companies were allowed to harvest the burned out forests, to salvage what timber they can, cut down the burned trees and replant some of them, the area might at least look nicer as it goes through it various phases of recovery and growth (ie various forests, maturing).

Marianne,
Believe it or night, environmentalist fight the Forest Service when they try to allow salvage logging in burned out areas. In Oregon a few years ago, after the Biscuit fire, court cases held up salvage logging until the trees had no market value. Over in the Boundary Waters near Ely, Mn, lawsuits held up efforts to clear the massive blowdown they had in 1999 or 2000. As they say, common sense is not too common these days.

(the environmentalist claim salvage logging harms the environment and threatans species.)

Marianne, congratulations on the early bird. But you cheated.12:05am!!!!! Come on now!!!!!!! HaHa Then Richard sneaks in behind you. Welllllllll!!!!!! CHARRRLLLIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MARY, we need you back to run Pastie, Charlie took off when you weren't lookin LOL

LOL, Cotton.

Good Morning, Everyone!

. Hey, I'm looking for my Eno Wilho Michaelsen from the Iron Mt. area. He sent me this Eagle Loop pic where the Kauppila's used to vacation. ?

I wanted everyone to know that UncleChuck@Little Betsy had a birthday on Monday, August 13. The big 49!! He informed me that he is celebrating all week. So if you would like to drop him a note that would be fantastic!!

Happy Birthday, Uncle Chuck @ Little Betsy! One more, and you'll be the big 5-0, and then AARP will start sending you membership packets, etc. :-) (Sorry, couldn't resist that one!)

Anyway, I hope you have a great birthday week!

Thanks Marianne, I hear you and my sis are neighbors.

Next year will be sh-tty fifty as grampa Norm called it.

Marianne,almost forgot, HOW ARE YOU FEELIN? Better I hope.

Kindest Regards,
UC

Does anyone else feel like they're reliving yesterday all over again???????? Rebel rejects. "Thou shalt overtake" Just a joke!!!!

Yep Cotton, we're stuck on the 13th, so that means it's still my birthday, 49 forever!

Happy Birthday Uncle Chuck!! Since it's still the 13th........I was very surprised to see all these entries since I didn't make a posting this morning before work. Anyone else feel out of wack because of no new pic? LOL

The picture that was suppose to be for today on the WhatsUp page is of my daughter and her husband taken eight years ago along with the dogs Oakley and Astro at McLain. They all just returned this past Saturday from there but also were my grandchildren Katie who will be three in October and Matthew who will be six in November.

Carole, those are awesome pictures! I love the life jacket on the one dog! What fun! I hope Charlie will show that picture to the group, when the site comes back up.

THANKS THERESA!

I seem to have lost a day somewhere, I thought it was Wednesday but it must be Tuesday. Must be the sugar.
