He is well known in the UP. When my mom and dad visited a few years ago and told people who my grandfather was, they were very well received. There's even a paragraph or two about him in a small book. I have a copy of the book at home.<br /><br />Can't wait to go visit in September!TravelBug-Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01974719934652737928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4309293625176086078.post-87548894376634840042014-06-22T09:55:31.535-04:002014-06-22T09:55:31.535-04:00Like the dunes, I had no idea about the shelves. ...Like the dunes, I had no idea about the shelves.

The Michigan coast of Lake Superior is beautiful, and so different from what I remember of the Minnesota side, which was also very beautiful. I have always thought I'd like to go back up the MN side again because I wasn't feeling very well the last time, but maybe I should try the WI side.<br /><br />The rainbow photo is just perfect!Gypsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18052445200220681513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4309293625176086078.post-31462115442093452782014-06-21T11:27:16.393-04:002014-06-21T11:27:16.393-04:00Absolutely gorgeous!

I have heard of the mighty waves and storms on the great lakes that can sink a ship but having never been there it's hard to imagine a lake being so rough. The sight of the ship wreckage and the shelves makes it more understandable.
