What a beautiful and peaceful looking sunset!
Brad Waara was a good friend of mine..Nice to see a in memory of photo for him .
My homepage is dedicated in Brad's Memory I think I will add this pic to my photo page(thanks to all the great pics) http://naomi2001.50megs.com

Here's one photo of Toivo Lohela. He's the man in the blue sweater at the top of the picture. He also was seen about two years ago pitching horseshoes.

Uncle Toivo taught me how to split firewood and how to use a two-man crosscut saw. We practiced considerably. He was also a favorite sauna companion, sometimes getting up in the middle of the night to fire his up so we could have a morning sauna before I went to work, that is when he still lived in South Range and when I lived in Trimountain. We last saw him in Marquette on Aug. 3'rd. I will miss him greatly, but will always carry fond memories of time spent together.

Thanks for thinking of my baby brother. I think of him every day and it's great to see that he has so many friends that care.
He will be missed GREATLY and every day at that.
Thanks again

Reflection

Sunset over the lake
opens a fan streaked
with hot-pink light. Below
the clouds, another sun sets
in dark water. We remember
those we knew and ponder
the way that life leaves,
like a sun, like a cloud,
bright and brief as time.
Rapt, below,
our faces tinged
with this farewell,
we know no other sunset
shall ever be the same,
nor days that linger like the touch
of gentle fingers
or love's outstretched hand.
