Decade of the Pasty Cam on this day ^{Printed on Recycled Internet}

How many boats do you see in today's decade review of the Pasty Cam?

I'm going with six. I think one is a double.

If that is all you saw, that's what we asked.

1 Boat 1 ship and 6 kayaks = 8 total

That is exactly what WE saw as well.

Happy Birthday "Hoosier Girl". :)

That made no sense. I'm retracting the double occupant statement , but revising to 8.

Let's not go overboard.

5 kayaks, 1 ship, 1 boat.....7.

We're fresh out of birds, but we bet a lot of people see 7 as well.

I need glasses...oh wait...I have them! LOL

The Northern Lights, Summer colors, + rainbow pics are especially fine.

Thank you Yooperguide. I'm having a wonderful time UP here. I plan on making the most of our UP vacation this week.

CNN is saying today, that tonight and into the early parts of August the 4th in the North, there should be a great display of Northern Lights. I hope to be able to see them here in the Soo.

Thank's for posting this info Theresa as I have been wanting to see a great display of the Northern Lights too. I am back home here in the Keweenaw where the weather has been so very fine letting me adjust from TN. slowly.. Hope you get to see them in the Soo..

Happy Birthday Cindy!

We should have a great show of the Northern Lights tonight; we're crossing the Cabot Strait between Newfoundland and Nova Scotia tonight with no city lights and not a cloud in sight!!

I'll see about getting photos....

Wow Capt Paul ~ talk about being in the right place at the right time! Hope you have smooooth sailing and clear skies!

Here's a good site to check the forecasts for when the Aurora will be active or quiet:

Looks like we have a couple good nights coming up.

Go to www.wxyz.com and click on the story, 'Freighter loses power on the St. Clair River,' It came within 10 feet of slamming into a seawall and a resturant.

I'm in Baraga. The gambling joint (the real name won't show!) and Prison lites delete ALL Northern Lights. Sniff.

Well it rained in the Soo last evening and I didn't get to see anything spectacular. But, when the sun was going down the golden and red look to the overcast clouds was a sight, I had never seen before. I was sure that if the rain clouds had not been so thick I could have seen something.
