Round 1, 18 inches, Round 2 just started.
That blur in the 2nd photo is an otter who was chewing on a fish out my window on the Montreal River.
Never forget-- the "Pilgrims" turned on the Wampanoag.

#LakeSuperiorCircleTour #map I have completed in blue.
Everybody says just north of the Soo are some of the best portions of the entire route.
My friend got me a moose button from #SaultStMarie as a kid, so it was cool to be there, yikes... 40 years later in person.

I covered another huge section of the #LakeSuperiorCircleTour this trip.
If you have not been to Eastern #LakeSuperior, its quite unreal, like the Mediterranean, no joke. Twenty shades of blue water, crystal clear as well.

Do you know the Celtic "tree alphabet"?... that doubles as a system of augury?
I drew AILM, which is symbolic of the Scot's Pine, a tree native to Scotland and a small, native population in Ireland.
It represents STRENGTH. RESILIENCE.

#Stunday I find snow energy highly energetic. This is Layman's Creek this morning, in far northern #Wisconsin, and it is still snowing as I share this. We will break the forecast easily.

Had a nice snow squall, and it pushed us past our forecast with more still falling.
A local creek is home to a pair of otters in winter, I went to see if they are around yet. Nope.
