Shot of the Day 7/9/24

A blue heron is dwarfed by the world’s largest floating loon on Silver Lake in Virginia, MN. The loon, unlike the heron, is tethered by a cable to the bottom of the lake, and only comes out of the water in winter.

I don’t know what it is about us Iron Rangers, but we also have the world’s largest hockey stick in Eveleth, a couple of miles from here.

summer breeze

walking, talking

we find ourselves

hand in hand

on a shoreline stroll;

lapping, slapping

the waves set up

an ancient rhythm

that stirs the soul;

splattering, spattering

wildflowers are drops

that fell when nature

painted in the spring;

rushing, gushing

the summer breeze is

the breath of life here

connecting everything

rainy summer blues

so much rain, so little time,

waiting for summer as it slips away

i said there’s so much rain, so little time

waiting for summer as it slips away,

i bet it rains on the fourth of july

with lightning and thunder

ruining the day

so much rain

so little time

Good Morning!

I’ve been unable to post lately due to the poor reception I’m getting here at the new place. Hopefully, I can switch to AT&T on payday, but until then, it’ll be spotty if at all. Sorry if I didn’t answer your comment–this really sucks!
