We needed to retreat into the woods:
We stayed in Paul Bunyon State Forest, but there was no sign of the lumberjack or his blue ox:
This guy was there though and based on his yelling, he was NOT happy to see us:
We hiked a quarter mile of the North Country National Scenic Trail before the mosquitoes got the best of us:
And joined the tourists at the Mississippi Headwaters in Itasca State Park:
I was in awe of the oldest white pine in the park, it is more than 300 years old:
The wildflowers were in bloom:
While we missed the Super Moon by one night, we thought ours was pretty darn super:
Nice picture show- I ‘m feeling the release.
Thanks, Beth! It was hard to leave.
